How are you going to store your antique firearms? If you are looking to store your antique firearms, you want to be sure that they are stored somewhere safe, dry, cool, and where someone or some children are not going to find them.
Store your antique firearms in a location where they will be kept dry and cool. This is important because the finish on many types of guns can become pitted and rusty if you don't care for them properly. In caring for your guns properly you don't want to touch them too often, because that can leave excessive oils from your hands on the gun. Dry can cool is important so that the metal doesn't rust, so the wood doesn't rot, and so that the value of your gun continues to climb. The value of your antique firearm can grow as it becomes older while in your collection.
Keeping your antique firearms in a location that is not going to be easily found by others will be important. You don't want your antique firearms to be touched, so that this will keep them in mint condition. In keeping your collection hidden or displayed under glass is going to keep them protected from people from touching them.
You don't want your antique firearms to be used or shot often either. This is going to keep them in top condition. Keeping your antique firearms under glass is going to keep these items in your collection from being used by someone who may be in the house or visiting the house. If you don't want to display your items, keep them in a safe, where they will be cool, dry and out of reach of those who may be tempted to shoot them
Keep your antique firearms for as long as possible. If you are just starting out with your collection, you want to hold onto as many antique firearms as possible so you don't lose out on a complete collection. You may be tempted to sell one to get another, but you will have to determine what type of collection you want to have in the long run.
If you are only going to collect firearms from 1700's then you should not be holding onto the guns and other types of firearms from the 1900's. Nevertheless, if you want to build a collection from every ten years between the 1700's and the 1900's you shouldn't sell any of your guns that fit into that range of what your collection will include.
