Such perplexity.
    If I had 35, my wife would have my nuts in 4 jars.

    How do you keep up with maintenance/rust prevention?

    It is really easy. They are kept in a climate controlled storage. Also, whenever I take any of them out to shoot, they are cleaned and lubed before they are put back. Never any issues.

    I'm with MarkM. I have more than I shoot regularly but have no plans on selling any of them right now. I still have a lower that I need to mate to an upper. I'll probably end up SBR'ing it.

    I have one rifle, so it never gets neglected. My handguns however are a different story.

    Meh, I'd keep it. But then again I can count on one hand the number of guns I've sold and I regret all but a couple of those....
