The thing that an old warhorse has that few black rifles has is "Soul". You pick it up and it has a certain heft, something that says: "I have a story to tell".
If they could only talk think of the story they would have.
I picked up a CMP Garand in a trade and it has the same appeal to me that an old Panhead has.
I really enjoyed the look on my Dads face when I handed it to him, he had not held one since September 1945.
He said it was just as heavy as he remembered.
