Do You Own A Gun Worth More Than Your Car?

[InkEd]

Do you own a SINGLE gun that is worth more than your car?

 

[EHL]

I think I might, maybe, but then again, cars tend to depreciate in value while guns tend to appreciate. But then, I also don't go running out the door to get the latest and greatest car every other year or so, that's just me though.

 

[yeti]

I have owned several cars worth less than some of my guns, but right now my car is worth more than any of my guns.

A new car every 20 years or so whether I need one or not.

 

[2WheelsGood]

I answered no, but back when I raced bicycles I had several bikes that were worth more than my car.

 

[ddrummond87]

That's a pretty impressive feat. I'd like to hear if anyone has accomplished this.

 

[ThePunisher'sArmory]

Seeing as I own a 1993 GMC Sonoma that has quite a bit of body cancer.......I would say yes .
Shes only worth about $900 on a good day to the right buyer. .

 

[jcwit]

I don't have a car, I own cars. And as others said it all depends on how old the cars are, a few years ago no, at present, yes. Maybe I need to buy a newer/new car, neh, I don't make payments, and deal only in cash, both in cars and firearms.

 

[oneounceload]

Not at the moment. I do shoot with several who DO own guns worth more than my car - and now and again I get to shoot those $30K guns - they sure are nice

If you were looking at the blue book generously, my Model 1873 Winchester is worth about $6000 including added value for the octagon barrel, and .44-40 caliber. Worth about $6000 on a very good day to a very happy buyer.

My current ride is an 01' Buick Century (Nothing special, gets good gas & from point A to point B, works, etc) and thats valued around $5500 also on a good day.
So yes, you could say I have a gun worth a little more than my car.

Another interesting thread idea: Do you own a gun worth more than your HOUSE?

 

[Unistat]

I voted yes, but it's only worth more than one of my cars, not the other.

 

[c919]

Uh yeah. I'd say I own several worth more than my car.

However, that's saying way more about the value of my car than the value of my guns.

 

[451 Detonics]

Not currently but I have in the past with some of my Class 3 belt feds.

 

[AWorthyOpponent]

not yet...

 

[LiENUS]

Haha I don't think I own any guns worth less than my car, I paid 200$ for my current car.

 

[hso]

Maybe, but my car is 13 years old.

 

[M2 Carbine]

Do you own a SINGLE gun that is worth more than your car?

Yeah, more than all three of my cars put together.

 

[mokin]

I have an old car and several news guns. One or more could easily be worth more than the car. Unless, I piece out the old car when it is finally time to go.

 

[leatherneck448]

$500 dodge colt station wagon

$1100 AR-15

you do the math

 

[XM855]

Am I the only one who wants a side-by-side from everyone who answered yes?

 

[Tim the student]

My car is paid for. Give me time to run it till it isn't worth fixing anymore, and I will.

 

[zxcvbob]

I have a 1994 Cadillac with 235000 miles on it (runs good, no dents and no rust) that I can't sell for $950. I have several guns that *might* be worth that.

 

[DammitBoy]

Nope, I don't have any guns worth 36k.

 

[rozziboy18]

no, just bought myself a new dodge pictured here.......on the other hand the rifle in the pic is worth twice as much as my first car!

 

[Mike OTDP]

Quite possibly. But my car is a 2004 BMW...and I own a Vector Uzi full-auto.

Now, if you talk pairs, the answer is yes. I own a case of minty Gastinne-Renette duelling pistols.

 

[Grunt Medic TXARNG]

Yep - primary transportation is an older BMW motorcycle - and several of my rifles are worth more than it.
