Buy recommendations Investment gun

I’m in a very lucky position to be looking into the idea of an investment gun. So I’m looking for some ideas and advice. If you were going to invest in something but would also shoot it maybe once a year with a budget of $15-20k, what would you get? If it was also “ban-proof” that would be nice. Hit me with ideas team!

I would recommend getting a great specimin of a Valmet Hunter in 223. A Valmet because obviously it is rare. A "Hunter" because I think it is safer than the M78 in terms of future bans (I know they're both equally exempted but nothing is guaranteed for the future. A "featureless" Hunter would logically be more resilient to potential bans). A 223 because it is the rarer than the larger hunting calibers (like the 308 which is more common) and in general a 223 semiauto is super rare in current Canada. Also get a bunch of 223 genuine Valmet mags.
