[QUOTE="Jack R Tishue Jr, post: 1636129, member: 109081"] The thing is, collectors want non-fired ones. Period, and willing to pay for it. Haven't looked but would be willing to bet an unfired 77, from the 80s would be well worth 3-4 times as much as a "shooter". So why throw away money, when you can have a shooter to shoot, and the money from the collectible one. I understand your attitude as have a buddy who's the same way. If I can't shoot it why have it. Well, fine, but if more valuable unfired, why not sell it and buy a shooter. But inability to appreciate a non-fired collectible shouldn't be a reason to ruin one, just because you think they should be shot. [/QUOTE]
