welcome,
heres a thought.
how about taking it out and putting to its intended use. Shoot it and have some fun. Then decide what you want to do with it.
Now, really don?t know what to do with it. Originally thought I would safe queen it and leave it (along with my entire collection) to my granddaughter.
did you ask your granddaughter what she thought about guns? Would she care if they were there or not? would she use them or just flip them?
If she's too young to shoot, then its not like the gun will expire in 1 year or rot. As long as you give it some minimal maintenance, it should last until she is able to shoot. But just be prepared for her to not care for guns when that times comes. Also, the gun isnt like the size of a house where you need to find a place to put it, it only takes up a small amount of real estate in a safe.
I was going to save some/all of my toys for my nephews, but they dont care for guns at this time. So im selling off most of my collection. I will keep some (for me and my enjoyment) but as far whats for them, i may will some of my collection to them, but not everything.
Here?s my dilemma: 1. Should I safe queen it, hoping that it will increase in value?
see above comment.
as far a value goes, in my opinion, guns go up in value. Are there better investments, yes. And as with any investment, you are gambling. No way to sugar coat it, so as with any investment, realize that the price can drop for whatever reason or they can be taking away from you, for whatever reason without any compensation, for whatever reason.
2. Shoot it which would necessitate a RRK at a minimum?
Guns have been test fired at the factory so i dont know of any mfg that doesn't. So imo, i would not say its "not fired" since it has in the strict sense of the word. Also, there is no way to prove how many shots its been fired.
3. Sell it?
again, i would take it out and test fly it and see what you think. You may end up liking it. You can ALWAYS sell it anytime you want.
I am new to CZ but have also recently bought a 75 Compact and a RAMI BD.
Everyone starts at 0. so, what you have now and what you want in the future may vary.
also, buying a gun for someone is to me like buying a clothes for someone. Its not going to happen. That to me is so personal and everyone has their own idea of whats they want - to wear or to shoot. Also, im not a clothes horse so i would be the last person to know. Even when it comes to guns, i know that some people would just take it and flip it into cash or whatever they may want. So in the end, i would rather give $$ and cut out the BS and let them buy what they want.
