Some go up some go down.
My first AK new for $125.00 first AR $575.00. Hard to find new ones for that now. I guess that means they went up in value and were a good investment. I don't buy guns as an investment to make money but because I want the guns. Anything you buy is only worth what you get when you sell it, since I am not interested in selling any of my guns they must be worthless . You probably are not going to get rich selling guns as a private collector but more power to you if you can. You will never change the mind of anyone that doesn't like firearms that guns are good for anything.
