      Am I wrong here, but isn't there no such thing as an unfired gun. My understanding is that all guns have to be test fired, therefore all guns have at least 1 rounds put through them, right???

        I shoot mine but certainly understanding collecting. I was going to try to not shoot one I bought, that lasted about 3 days. Just too much fun to shoot them.

            All of mine are unfired - today. They all get fired on range trips (not all on same trip). Seems to me firearms are made to be fired, although I understand the concept of collecting - I just don't own anything NIB and collectible, and I'm too old to buy something to sit on for 30 years...

              Hey zippo, wanna sell that G19?? 2 years...I'm sure you won't miss it

              I have a dimpled Saiga 7.62 x 39 I haven't fired since buying it from a fellow Calgunner 2 months ago. Haven't had the chance to go to either Angeles or Burro. All 10 mags are loaded and ready to go though. Also haven't fired my Mini 30 since installing the accu-strut 2 months ago.

                    2 OLLs still in project stage

                    1 1954 Polish M44. Sure looks new and unissued. Bought it 15 years ago and it's been sitting ever since.

                          Unfired, NIB? Zero. I am still working on getting all the milsurps I want and I tend to buy used.

                          Now if the question was what guns have I bought but not shot, then I would have to say:

                          1 91/30
                          1 91/30, hex receiver
                          1 BSA .22
                          1 Stevens .12 gauge
                          1 H&R .10 gauge
                          1 M44
                          1 M38
                          2 SKS
                          1 Styer M95
                          1 K98
                          2 Yugo 24/47
                          3 Swiss K31
                          1 FN 49

                          Ok, I suck. Maybe I should have my gun card revoked and give all my stuff away.

                              Guns are test fired in the white (before bluing and finishing).

                                Mmmm..not S&W. Or at least not for awhile now. They used to test fire and then clean them before shipping; not any more. I suppose it's a cost cutting thing, but we used to take brand new guns out of the box to put on display that were filthy.
                                In fact we occasionally had especially picky customers accuse us of selling them a 'used' gun because it had been fired.
