By design, like todays tires and tv sets. Nothing lasts forever, friend. Before you go, could you turn off the lights around here?
The good news is some undeserving schmuck nephew will be pawning your guns for pennies on the dollar to support his crack habit or buy diapers for his baby momma.
Might as well sell 'em on the campfire.

I will be dead, they could end up in a landfill for all I care Same - if they truly mattered, I'd have already given them to those I care about before I was gone. Someone who'd sell them for pennies on the dollar to fund a drug addiction, isn't one who'd receive em anyway so it's a non-issue even then.

Im 48, don't plan on dying anytime soon, but ya never know. No kids. No nieces or nephews that shoot. You sound like a decent individual, want me to put your name on one? Have a 16ga Franchi O/U that is a fun rabbit and grouse gun.

I'm primarily a forged, machined, blue steel and walnut guy. But I'm a dinosaur in an age where most new gun nuts are cosplayers and LARPers. The upside is as you describe; some lifelong hunter had an Al Biesen build his dream rifle on an '09 Argentine and now he's gone on to the Great Council Fire. The dip$hit grandson who can't find his bunghole with both hands doesn't give a tinker's damn about anything not in the latest John Wick movie, so he will sell you that piece of art for a pittance.

Whilst you and Ethel are in the hospital waiting for your "appointment" with the hereafter, cousin LeRoy and girl slut Shanequa come in and clean you out friend. Haven't you watched ANY episodes of Perry Mason at all?

I don't get fleas because I haven't laid down with dogs. As to complaining about the generation coming after, was my job to raise it (in my family) - I did and I didn't phouc it up so yeah, zero concerns about my son and what will or won't happen with my gear - I did my job and I did it right. YMMV...

You seem to project a lot of your life into mine. Golly, that seems a little judge-mental, friend. We're all just travelers through time and space, and all that.

I mentioned to our son a couple of months back that any guns that I hand down to him are "on loan until I'm gone", his reply was "dad, I only add guns"

Pick a deserving youngster and mentor him/her to appreciate the fine quality guns they will eventually inherit from you, and encourage them to do the same when it's their time to be the graybeard elder. My kids (OK, at least one of them) and two grandsons will benefit from that tradition, I hope. There are also a very few non-relatives that I've chosen to share possessions and knowledge with. The rest of the world can go pizz up a rope!
