sound advice Ron. In addition and you see it here in the America's, that not always is the family interested in a piece of history, especially a "firearm". I personally never push a family member to "keep it in the family"; as they obviously have little interest in it, and I have keen interest in historical items. Many folks and family members simply do not care about a gun; thye might keep uncle Joes flight jacket or the like, or nothing, but that is their family decision.
I figure that I can guarantee a good home, either with me or another dedicated collector. Better to go that route than a police turn in or sold at a pawn shop for $200....
