I have a few I haven't shot....that sit in the safe and come out to be admired from time to time.  Not that I won't shoot them, there just isn't time or the right time.

I guess I have some safe queens.   There were some I just had to have.  Then there are some that I just haven't had the time or ammo to shoot.  There are some unfired ones that I bought because they were such a good deal I couldn't pass up.  The way the economy has gone they may not have been a bad investment, but were not bought for that intended purpose.  I haven't shot those with the thought that I could use them for trading purposes to get others that I think I want more.  Then I have a hard time convincing myself to part with them.  I can only recall selling one gun and that was because it just didn't fit my hand well.  I did give a few away though.  I had gotten a really sweet deal on some of the Romainian .22 trainers at one time and used a few as Christmas presents as I had intended.  Hello, my name is Wolfe and I'm a gunaholic.  Is there a twelve step program?  I'm sure some antis think the reason for my love of things that go bang is that I must have a complex about inadequate body sized parts or something.  But that is their problem.

Yes, but only if you park right in front of the gun store and it's 8 steps to the gun counter

No safe queens, but I have a few 1911's that could be confused as 'queens' because they still look new....even though they are over 20 years old and have been shot a lot......I just maintain them well, even if I shoot the hell out of them.
