Hey Jim
I don't 'collect' per se .... I did buy one little Belgian pinfire revolver - which I gave to my father as an 'interest' item ....... and that is the only 'obsolete' calibre I have ever bought.
I (like Tac) kept two of my pistols when the Government here decided I was not fit to shoot them & I had them deactivated - one an 1896 Broomhandle Mauser & the other a 1917 P08 Luger
Both would be classed as Section 5 here now

I own a couple of pinfires. They are interesting little pieces, but never struck me as being a very "sturdy" piece of kit. I'm not sure how long the pinfire era lasted, but it seems as though they never really caught on.
