Gun Boxes....Keep "Em or Chunk them?

[ROGER4314]

I chunk the boxes. My place is just too small to keep things like that.

I put mine up in the rafters of my detached garage. You'd be surprised how much more willing someone is to buy a used gun when it's still got the case and manual and whatnot.

Totally agree with that.

I keep all boxes for my personal firearms......but most people don't......

It's like throwing money in the trash, imho....

if you go to resell the gun, guns with original boxes are worth more than those without.

So, the strategy would be to settle on a price for the gun, THEN pull out box...

I keep mine. I like to seeing them stacked up on the top of the safe.

That way the crooks know if it's worth it or not to break in....

Same thing I was thinking.

Don't know how it is today, but most if not all S&W revolvers used to come in blue S&W logo cardboard boxes. My gen 1 Shields came in them.

My Shield came in the cardboard box and my M&P 45 came in a plastic case.

I sell so few guns, I just chunk the cardboard.

Now I can cancel the trash pick-up.

Just store them in sealed plastic and I'll be along to pick them up! Thanks!
