Many of you who've been around for a while might remember my old post about my grandfather passing down his prized winchester model 50 shotgun to me. I went and picked up a couple boxes of hevi-shot classic doubles waterfowl loads and took the old winy out to the duck blind today. I managed to put four boot lips on the water with it. Papa will get a kick out of another pic of his first grandson and his old shotgun still laying the birds low.
Sharps, the rifle that made the west safe for Winchester!
Real tractors have two cylinders and hand clutches.
My rifle is mine, it isn't for sale, and I only give guns to people that I really like.

That is great! I have an old Charles Daily over and under that my grandfather left me.. Every time I'm in the field with it, it's like he is there with me.. I can picture him smiling as the birds hit the dirt! Just like the first time he took me out with it...

Way to go.
You can hop but you can't hide. Yahi Bowmen. Its not how far you can shoot but how close to the game you get when you shoot. Sights we don't need any sights. Why waist time reloading when I can be making arrows.
