I have been collecting airguns for many years.
My collection is large and of high quality items.
Every airgun has a story. Finding it, acquiring it,
sometimes refurbishing it, shooting it and admiring it.
The thought of not having it never occurred to me.
But now I'm older and things have changed.
With much angst and deliberation I've come to the realization
that it's time to move some of my collection to the next generation of collectors.
There may be others who are feeling this pinch but I remembered something that I had read somewhere years ago though I can't remember who wrote it.
It may help others who find themselves in this circumstance.

Someday,
All the items in your collection are going to
belong to somebody else.
Don't fret or worry about it,
after all,
that's how you got them in the first place.

There is a lot of truth to your words.

Just finished servicing my new (according to its age and history) acquired old FWB300SU and so happy seeing it back to its life again!
