For all who want to throw out their gun boxes, I will take them. I will even pay the shipping, but please make sure the gun is in the box when you ship it.
That's me also. If someone I don't know well enough, I think without the original box and articles, there is more of a chance the gun was stolen.I keep em and I'm more inclined to buy used gun if it has the box and papers
I was shocked at how much old S&W, Colt, even SIG boxes are going for on the internet market. There's a thriving market for the boxes, and I've seen more than one box that was altered to make it look like the original box a gun came in... There are some clever entrepreneurs who actually forge labels for S&W and Colt boxes.I see a lot of vintage firearms with the box. Very questionable. The old timers didn’t care about the box.
Have never bought a new gun. Only 3 of my dozen are still in original configuration. So I have saved no boxes. But I have made some....

I am just curious about who saves the boxes that your new guns come in? We are looking at a move in the near future and in the process of cleaning out the attic I ran across several gun boxes. I know that a lot of buyers like having the box.
So, who saves them and who don't? Whats your thoughts on this?
Thanks in advance for any replys.
But on the other side of the coin... you had room for the gun itself, didn't you?
