Jd? I agree, I buy when the price is right, I do not need to have a use for it. If it is cheap, I will buy it, and sell or trade it later. I see that as different than "investing" in multiple copies of the same weapon, purchased at retail.
Gribb? I looked at your profile, and your home page, and as an "old fart", I will offer some advice. I do not know where you are, but I agree that land is the place for long term investment (as in you are mid twenties, and have a long time to hold it). Look around, investigate, which direction is your city/town moving? Is it restricted by a river, mountain, or an interstate to which direction it HAS to move? Go far enough from the center of town to buy land at "farm" prices, instead of "city lot" prices. Buy all you can finance, and rent it out to be farmed for enough to pay the mortgage and taxes, and wait for the city to invade. Talk to your elders, and you will find that they remember gravel roads where you now see city streets.
Firearms are fun, they are a stable hobby. You will probably be able to buy and use any firearms you wish, maintain them properly, and break even when you dispose of them. Some of them may have an extreme increase in value, but legislation could make them worthless.
