Well the guns are cleaned and put away, dont think I could ever sell any of them. Might trade one for a nice semi-auto pistol in the future but the time I spent time taking them all apart and cleaning gave me a great appreciation for what they are and what they meant to him. The wife and I spent the last 5 weekends cleaning out his shed and property and all I can say is HOLY CRAP! I quess over the last 40+ years it all built up slowly and I never really noticed how bad it was. We hauled off 7 1/2 tons of scrapmetal and filled 2 large dumpsters full of junk. That doesnt include what we burned. I hope he gets to come back home but I doubt it since the dimentia just keeps getting worse. If he does, he's probably gonna be pissed but I feel better knowing if he does decide to go work on something he wont be tripping or falling down over the mess. Here are the before and after pics.
