[QUOTE="gusd, post: 1581813, member: 90071"] After reading all posts in this thread it really reinforced a conclusion I recently came to. My grandpa with whom I was very close recently passed away. He was not a big hunter but had a few nice guns and a ton of other very nice stuff, with great stories behind many of the things he owned. Stories that only My brother and I that spent a ton of time with him know.Unfortunatly He did not give anything to us before he passed and we are not included in his will. I am guessing most of his stuff will be sold and most all these things history with their sentimental value will be lost. So I personally will be giving my sentimental stuff, guns favorite hunting knives anything I feel will pass on a great memory to my kids,and anyone I feel would enjoy, and appreciate them,and use them while I am still very alive. That way I will be able to enjoy seeing other people enjoy things that meant something to me. And hopefully the stories of that special rifle or other thing I gave away to the person of my choosing will live on! Plus what good do those things in the safe do if they are not getting used and making new memories! [/QUOTE]
