Vlim, I agree with and understand what you’re saying in a meta sense but also fundamentally with gunbugs. In pursuing my history Master’s, I of course had to spend time and take classes about museum work and material history. One of the recurring themes was that machinery with interacting parts need to be run in order to be properly maintained or else they will fall to neglect. No one says that someone is ruining a collectible car by making sure the engine does in fact run or if they take it around the block every now and again. I fail to see how guns do not fit this mold.
