So, you know.

I have a $3000 custom made bamboo fly rod. I've fished it over 200 days a year for 10 years. It still looks new.

I have a Winchester 94 my dad gave me in 1954. I couldn't count the days that gun has been hunted. Stock still looks as good as the day I got it.

If you beat on your guns. Use a tupperware stock.
