40 years of gun hoarding and you start to understand the quantity part. I have come to the conclusion that I have way too much crap packratted away.
Leave it as it is. The ages have been at work on it and man can only mar it.
Don't hit at all if it is honorably possible to avoid hitting; but never hit soft.

Im a big fan of it doesnt matter what it costs. If it speaks to me and its in the ballpark then I just have to have it. Too much is a very relative term. :)
