Parker Hale engraved damascus barreled side by side BP 10ga. Serial number puts it 1889-1893. It appears to be fully functional. I know that my grand father hunted with it when my dad was young. I've never fired it. It is the only gun in my safe that I've never shot.

My first gun is a 1962 winchester 22 single shot rifle, and has no serial number, wonder why??

Odd.... I have a 1936 Winchester 22 single shot that has a serial number. It's not uncommon to have guns without serial numbers prior to the turn of the century, but after, I'm pretty sure there was a Gov requirement mandated. I don't rememeber the date.. I think it was 50's era.. or some such.

Mint BLA .308
My theory is if the wood is too nice I probably will never shoot it. Everyone should have a handfull of collector guns. I like synthetic, stainless for dragging around in the woods and throwing in the truck.

When I get home I will take a pic and post it of the gun. Not sure why did not have one maybe because its a single shot?

I have an old .32 pistol that was my granddads that I have never fired. Don't really know if I'd want to.

it was the gun control act of 1968 the required all firearms have a sn# after that time.
anything before that was grandfathered in to not need a sn#

I picked up a 375 H&H mag from my neighbor (he was on the way to a pawn shop to sell).
I picked up a 338 win mag (BAR) custom edition at an RMEF banquet.
I bought 2 SKS's when the Brady bill passed just because it pissed me off.

I bought a 10/22 for my son a few months back and he is too damn lazy to go out to the range & learn how to shoot it. 'bout ready grab him by the scruff of the neck and make him sight it in on that damn Xbox he hasnt put down since school got out!!
Then I also have a stainless Colt Mustang Pocketlite .380 I've never shot. Already have one in the blued version so I know how it shoots already but I still need to get out & fire this one.
Last is a stainless Colt Pony Pocketlite DAO .380. It is brand new in the case and never been fired. So far I like fondling it too much with that in mind to actually pop the cherry so it sits lonely in the safe while all the others go out to play... Nasty long trigger pull anyway so I'm not sure if I want to shoot it all that bad!

I don't like to tell the world what I have in my safe but that's a close estimate. Mostly Model 88 and 100 Winchester's as well as bunch of Model 12 Win's and I have a fascination with Model 722 Remington's so have a bunch of those also.
I buy and sell often so I don't have time to take them all out. A lot of them are investments also so I choose to not shoot them. My kids will appreciate it down the road as I am appreciating what my Dad and Grandpa have collected over the past 60 years.

I got a winchester 94 buffalo bill commemorative rifle with an octagon barrel that I've never shot and a winchester modal 88 in 308 and a very old pistol my grandfather found in a old box with some gold coins when he was plowing a field when he was in his early 20's
How cool is that?! What a find!

You should do some research, maybe it is stolen loot and the gun from the robbery. " Now where did I bury that box again? Who moved my marker? Crap! " :bash:

Although are are guns that I would love to purchase that I would never fire, all the guns I own have been used, and carried. However my little .380 I only fired after I purchased it and I clean it weekly, but don't really shot it, just carry it. I did have to make sure its reliable tho. I should shoot it more, its been about a year.
Wait, I do have one traditions .54 Muzzle Loader that may dad built. I just want him to shoot it first but he never get out to the range. Maybe one of these days.

Yes, he is still buying more.I worked with an old dude who was a sniper in Viet Nam or Korea (i can't remember which) but guns were his life. He told me that he had somewhere between 300-400 rifles and that most of them were packed in grease, plastic and buried around his place in Lacey and at his cabin above Neah Bay. He came into work one day with over 100 rifles in the back of his truck and was headed off to hide them. Most of them had never been shot.

I guess that right before he died he gave a map of their locations to his buddy (probably his only one). Yep, it would be pretty darn cool to stumble on those!
