The other day I was going through my firearms to make sure I have accurate info / photos / in my inventory files.
As I was working my way through the project, I came across a Ruger P-85 which was one of the first - or maybe the first - semi auto I ever bought. Because it is a charter member of my collection is not why I wouldn't sell it.
The reason: the P-85 got my girlfriend (at the time) and me out of a spot wherein I'm certain of one simple thing: it saved our lives. I'll spare you the details because I don't like talking about them, so maybe I'm sparing myself the details...not a "fun" event to re-live or discuss.
On the open market that particular gun wouldn't fetch a lot of $, but to me it's priceless.
How about you? Any experiences wherein the "elements or circumstances" of the firearm are worth a great deal than money?
Thanks,
