If it is an item that means something to you, and you can use it and not feel resentful then buy it. That way it becomes your gun which you can hand down to your child. Possessions that have family history do mean something.
If it would just be a reminder of bad feelings and sadness, than don't buy it. I agree with what others on this thread have said, buy a new gun you can share with your son that will become his when you pass on, and then go out and use it with him so it will have good memories attached to it. In the end it isn't about the possessions themselves, its about the memories they call up.
