All my guns get used but I do everything in my power to keep them from getting damaged in any way. I am careful where I set them and what I do with them even when I am hunting. I feel like taking care of my guns is a form of respect for them. I also feel like if I take care of them they will take care of me so to speak. some of my guns have scratches nics here and there. but overall they look pretty good...of course I am in my 20's and my first gun I have only had for about 6 years so few of them are very old.

Nothing wrong with banging your guns around....just don't do it to mine!
