    You either overestimate how much guns cost or underestimate how much lawyers cost.

      Or any of the scenarios where op is no longer employed or self employed and between jobs. Court appointed attorneys are based on current income iirc.

        LOL, I have shitloads of guns, unemployed. Ya got me! And it’s not like selling them would bring me any amount of lawyer time.

        $1,000 AR-15, $800 used, at best. That’s 3 hours of lawyer time and a few emails. I couldn’t get $300 for most of my crappy guns.
