Own guns you haven't shot?

Jgreen
Ok, so I think I may have too many guns (gasp!). I say this because of all of my handguns, I think that I have some that I have never shot. These are S&W 61, Sig 239, Beretta Tomcat (replaced my old one w/cracked frame), S&W 66, Colt 1903 .380. How many of you own guns that you haven't shot, not becuase they are collector's pieces, but just becuase you haven't gotten around to it?

    I've had a nice 1904 Winchester for a few years that I've never fired. Don't really know why. Picked it up cheap at an auction. Might be because I have a 67 and just get that if I'm in a single shot bolt action mood. I really don't have a reason. Kind of odd now that the subject has been mentioned.

    Most that I own I have never shot. I have a couple that I shoot alot, but the others just sit in the safe. I have 10 or 12 (can't remember [:I]) long guns. I have shot 2 of them. I have probably 5 or 6 handguns I've never shot. I just always seem to grab the same old ones when going out to shoot.

    I own more than a few I haven't busted a cap in. Mostly handguns. But do have some investment plainjane rifles Rem.,Savage,Win.s, and Rugers That have never rocked my shoulder. I'm talking .308,.270,.243,30.06, etc. Need to get rid of them and buy some building materials for my rental house remolding deal. Some how since best friend/shooting -hunting buddy died , Have just lost the desire to do much hunting or target shooting. Thanks Steve

    Three come to mind that I've never shot. Got more that I haven't shot for 20-25 years.

    I have shot every gun in my possession. There aren't that many of them. I own several that I've never seen, but I'm working on that problem, and expect to be working on it for another nine months or so. When they arrive, at least one needs some love from a gunsmith and I'll probably have to have the ammo for another custom-made...but they'll get shot as soon as reasonably possible.

    I shot them all before I sold them and just keep a LeFauchaux 22 for self defense.

    I have a Jennings 22 I only shot once then it jammed and I never picked it up agian. Other then that all my guns get moderate to heavy use.

    I have a DPMS AR-15, a Rossi .357 snub nose, and a Thompson Auto Ordinance 1911 that I have not shot yet. Waiting for it to get warm outside. Oh I forgot to mention that I bought the 40 round drum for the 1911- that should be fun. But when Barak Osama becomes president these things will not be around if he gets his way.

    I have a bunch of Rugers in my collection that I've never shot. Those are my "retirement account", while all my non collectables I shoot.

    Have a bunch that I won't shoot (collectable) and have another bunch that I haven't shot, for no better reason than just haven't gotten around to it yet.

    None. I own 7 guns, and I've fired all of them since I bought them. I've fired all of them EXCEPT my Benelli since I got home from the sandbox, only because I don't have any 12 ga. shells.

    The one that has the most rounds through it though is, by far, my High Standard.

    Nope.

    Folks in my tax bracket cain't afford to buy guns that they don't shoot.

    I've got exactly one dozen guns. And I shoot 'em all.

    I have two guns I have never shot and it really bums me out. I have a brand new Howa 30-06 and a Berreta 12ga over and under. I cant wait to shoot both of them.

    I told myself never to admit to this, but although I shoot very well, I tend to be more of a "collector", than I do a shooter. [;)]

    And...while I'm in the "confessing mode", I tend to find shooting, kind of (gasp [:0])......boring......[:(]

    I hope that I can still remain here as a member.


    Does this mean we need a collector's forum?[:)]

    A 338RUM that the price was just too good. I have added a muzzlebreak and will be planning a western hunt for '08 and a pre-64 model 100 Winchester. Metal is 99% and stock was cut very short for a kid. Have almost finished a new stock and will have it out soon.

    All the unshot ones are collectibles, NIB rifles or pistols/revolvers with collectible potential, or 99%+ S&W revolvers in presentation case that I will not shoot.

    I think I shot everything else at least once, except mabye a Chinese SKS I picked up last year...just haven't had the time
    plus the public range I usually go to has been closed.

    I've shot all of mine but my stepdad has a Winchester model 94 i've been itching to get out to the range but he said it's too old to shoot. I don't believe this, but it's not my rifle so until he decides it isn't......
