Oldest gun

When I first started to pick up English rifles, none of them were 100 years old. Now, many years later, quite a few of my rifles are over 100 years in age.

How old are yours?

Do you think anyone in 1906 had a 100 year old rifle and thought about it as a valuable item?

What would have happened to those rifles that would now be 200 years old.

What happens to old rifles anyway? Are they like Elephants and just go to the old rifle graveyard?
