Peter, it's the only real hobby I have that I spend money on. Other than a few shotguns here and there, I live a pretty frugal life. I recently retired and am having a good time, most of the time, well some of the time... :)
 
Slugo,

I find myself addicted to going to gun auctions...one every two or three months. I buy both handguns and long guns, with the attitude that for every three I buy I will keep one and sell two to pay for the one I keep.

So far during the past year that has worked well for me, without doing a lot of damage to my retirement income (and losing my wife's cooperation).

Shotguns, even higher priced shotguns, seem to go 'cheaper' at the auctions and yet on the on-line web-sales sites they earn good return. Handguns pricing at auctions really varies a lot from event to event...but the hardest group of all are the Center-fire Rifles. The tend to go high at auction, especially those with the "cool" look (AR-AK etc) which makes reselling a low profit exercise.

You are correct about the satisfaction you get from using your retirement time and money for something you really enjoy. !! Keep it going !
 
I know you've made some good buys too ....and as long as you're happy ..it doesn't matter...

( but if you ever, imply to my wife - let alone say it out loud ...that guns you don't shoot all the time ...should be sold...I'll hunt you down like a dirty dog in the dark ! )....:cool:
 
Slugo - you're flipping and changing shotguns more than my wife does her hair color!...........................:D

Wish I lived in an area where you seem to be able to find such nice ones at real deals and flip them.......you should be close to that K-20 pretty soon
 
Geez guys, most people show pictures of guns they have; not pics of ones they got rid of. I get the feeling I'm viewing snapshots of ex-wives-and that they're being bragged about! :D

Are you saying it's like publishing sex tapes of your ex girlfriend on the internet (not that I have ever seen or would look at one)?:D

Man, is that great wood on the bottom O/U!!! If these are the ones sold, I would love to see the keepers!
