I do not view my guns as a financial investment.  They are an aesthetic investment.  I don’t like them in a safe, where I cannot see them.  Nor do I like them “displayed” where they are the focus.  I like them littered about as if left by the last user, and awaiting the next.  I have some on the wall, but in the same way a user would put them up after coming in from being out and about.  Tools of a trade.  

I grew up in a house like that.  Loaded guns all throughout the house.  We were taught to use and respect them at a very young age. Never knew what might pop up in the yard or out behind the barn.  Visitors at night were either lost or trouble.

Exactly my attitude, except I’d also add, educational investment.

Never owned a safe, but live in a place (northern NY) where I haven’t locked my house in decades.
