A good friend of mine asked me to sell off a few rifles his lathe father acquired in the pacific during WWII. While they held some significance history wise. He felt the pain his dad went through would be lessened buy getting rid of anything related to that time.
You make a very good point. I could understand that, but i am sentimental about those types of things. It's just something about cherishing and honoring what that person has done in life even if they are now gone from this world. Ie: telling stories and passing down heirlooms from generation to generation. Just my opinion.
