    Gun collecting vs Gun shooters

    Just curious how many calgunners shoot all there weapons vs calgunners who buy and just collect.
    Myself a little of both.

    I shoot every gun I own that being said, I don't own guns that are considered safe queens. There is nothing wrong with collecting guns and not shooting them IMHO. Also most guys who do just collect, will own guns they do shoot.

        Don't collect. All get shot. But I trade a lot as well after getting tired of them.

          I collect them and then shoot them all except a couple that are too old to be safe.

            Shoot them all and collect them. I even take my registered magnum to the range.

              Shoot some more than others, some have not seen range time in years.

              Of course, if you have a lot of them this is likely, as I do have favorites and have some that are required to be owned (but no AK!...yet) under the Calguns collector/owner rules.

                Shoot most all regularly. One is not my style but belonged to my wife so it sits in the safe.

                    Sold most of the ones that I didn't shoot. The only safe queen I have left is a matching numbers K98. The replacement cost is too high for me at this point. Everything else is a shooter.

                            I still have some that haven't made a trip to the range, too many projects.

                              I intend to shoot them all, just haven't gotten around to a few yet.
