As an investment, I think guns, esp. one like this, pretty much suck. As a toy to have that won't devalue too much and may even increase in value a bit, guns are great. This one would be a safe toy to avoid devaluing a lot but if that's what you like do it.
If you just want an investment, buy a stock fund or a CD.
Personally, I don't get a kick out of having a valuable rifle in my safe. So, having it sit there and accrue mild amounts of value by aging is pretty pointless to me. Like having a rare, valuable vintage of wine in a bottle. What's the point? Still, there are people for whom "having" is everything - using, not so much.
