I think options A and B are equally important. I love milsurp rifles, was planning to get a Garand and an M1A, and I also like guns like the AR 15, AK 47, SCAR, Barrett 50 BMG and 338 Lapua...too many to name, really, but money problems shut me down for now at least. I'll buy any gun that I like if I have the $$ at the time, and I do like old guns too. I don't care if they go up in value or not, I just like them.
