I have to admit I get more joy out of maintaining my firearms, examining them, learning about them, and understanding each tiny part of them and how they work than I do from shooting. In a sense, my firearms collection is a lot like a collection of model ships. I'm interested in the most minute details of material and operation

I fit that description. Yes, I like shooting, but I only shoot about 25% of the guns I own. The others I purchased because there was something unique and irresistible about them. I have disassembled all of my firearms with a notable few exceptions:
2 Pythons - nothing good is going to come from me taking those beauties apart
Detonics Pocket 9 - I've tried, and tried and tried - still trying to get it apart
Beretta Gold Pigeon O/U - leave this one to the experts
The most difficult gun I ever took apart, and eventually got back together again, was an old H&R .32 Selfloader.
I love uniquely designed firearms.
