Weighing in...collecting from other cultures...

That is an interesting line of questioning Nathanial. For me, a weapon is not a sacred object and can in that light be fair game to collect, appreciate, and study by those in an outsider group. Although some weapons may be of major historic significance warranting some measure of government regulations to at least keep them in the country of their origin. Personally, I think in the end it is up to conscientious individuals inside and out to preserve and pass on the knowledge and stories that these things represent.
