    I know there are folks (myself included) that came late to the game which explains some of the price bump on milsurps. But the increase in collector value is different (in my view)
    than the current panic ("I need something to protect myself before it is banned") price increases. It seems to me that the lack of interest in history in the generations following mine
    is eventually going to create some downward pressure on the prices of "old wood & steel". Who knows? Lots of variables.

    I try not to think of it ,encourage any young person that has interest and encourage others to do the same.
