Its only an ivestment if you sell them. Most of us buy guns with no thought of every reselling them, at least not in our lifetimes. Years ago I bought a little Browning Buckmark 22lr 6 inch barrel from an acquaintance for $125. It was in like-new condition and hardly used. Recently someone offered me $175 for it. That $50 profit doesn't come close to the enjoyment this fine target gun has given me. That $50 would cover about one meal out for my wife an I, and only if we go to a cheap restaurant!
All of the early enfields have gone up a lot in the last 20 years. Stuff like mlm's, clle's, mk1's mkII -all the long lees. These used to be 250-300$ rifles In the early 90's now many of them can easily exceed 2,000$ if in good shape and matching numbers
Wives: investment or money pit? *ducks hurled frying pan* to funny but so so true a good one is more valuable than life itself, but a bad will cost you everything you own.
If you want money pit get into any of the automotive hobbies.
I got into guns because they're cheaper, they don't deteriorate from not shooting them and you can typically sell them for pretty close or more than you have in them.
