Gun boxes

[jahaze]

Do you save them? What about scope boxes, etc?

I save everything (have the original box for every gun I've ever purchased). I figured this was normal, however after mentioning it to some of my hunting buddies they thought it was odd to keep them. How about Rocksliders?

I don't save my gun boxes but I do keep my scope boxes. I tend to try different scopes and sell the ones I don't want.

Funny - I’m moving and was discussing this with a friend. While I got rid of some of the very basic cardboard gun boxes, for the life of me, I could not toss the scope boxes. I kept all the plastic gun boxes as well.

My friend was saying basically the same thing; only a fire could rid him of all those worthless boxes

For pistols with their plastic box, and hard cardboard boxes for scopes, yes.

But not usually for long guns as the box is just flimsy cardboard. I do keep the paperwork and owners manuals.

Keep them. In the past I have sold several guns and everyone I sold to asked if I had original box.

I only keep my scopes in boxes but don’t keep Guns in box. Scopes are more fragile and need to be well pampered. Regardless, I see nothing wrong in keeping your guns boxed.

Useful for shipping if you sell one.

Nope

There are original boxes on eBay for guns like s&w 2214 that are listed for $100
