Yes, that makes sense.
I'm at a point in life where I don't really care about monetary value (that's something my heirs can worry about), but I do care about history and leaving a legacy for others to enjoy.
Much respect to the conservators of high grade pistols, but that's not how I enjoy my hobby.
To make a muscle car analogy, I'm the sort who would rather have a COPO clone and race it than to have a irreplaceable original and be afraid to let it see sunlight. My imperfect arsenal rebuilds will provide me and many guests a great deal of fun and historical insight.
You lugerforum members have already elevated my understanding of the history, and I thank you.
