I have always bought GOOD QUALITY GUNS....they are the easist ot resell if the need arises...I have stayed with the tried and true names...Colt, S&W, Winchester, Browning, Ruger, Glock, SIG, Walther.....you can't go wrong..sure you might pay more...but your return is better.

Also I would keep my eyes open for a GOOD used gun...like cars once you take them out of the show room the thing depreciates... They sell alot of Ruger Mark II's, so there is bound to be a used in like new condition floating around somewhere close.

right there in Middleburg, VA is a well known Antique Gun Dealer by the name of David Condon....I have bought a couple of stellar guns at his auctions for very reasonable prices...He always has a nice selection of Old Timey Guns...
