    Good Lord, Trap...we need pics!

    My wife's grandfather was a B-24 captain in Europe during the war. He would not talk about his experiences very much.
    Just taking up space in (what is no longer) the second-worst small town in California.

      Dutch, my uncle is like that too. He'll talk your ear off about the planes and flying them, but not a word what they were used for, unless it was peacetime.
      Working on the pics.
      I got two group shots of the safe's contents, before the camera called it quits again. Couldn't use the wife's cam, she took it with her to the gathering of hillbillies, aka her family reunion (you have no idea how happy I am that I got out attending that) .
      I'll see if this camera will cooperate long enough to get them loaded to the PC, and posted.

            All shotguns with the exception of a mint condition Stevens .22/.410 O/U with Tenite stocks, and marked U.S.A.A.F. It was a survival gun that came out of my uncles B-29, never been fired. Two boxes of US marked 3" .410 #6 aluminum hulls with it.

              Thanks for the pics, Trap.
              We had such a cat, although I would guess she went 20 lbs. Of course, she chose the hottest day of the year to croak.

              Some nice guns pictured, regardless.

                Have to see if I still have pics of the 32 pounder, that thankfully moved out with the daughter. They cost about the same to feed!
                Took about 20 pics of the Stevens before the camera crapped out again, about 6 came out. Started another thread with the pics here:

                  I'm glad you finally got the safe opened. Those look like some nice shotguns you've had stashed away.

                  The cat doesn't look too happy that you've taken over its domain.

                    Belly rubs, some uncontrolled drooling, and she forgot what happened 5 mins ago.
                    Her little sister, (as in half her size and weight), is the gunsmith kitty.
                    She perches in here "supervising" my work. Earns her keep by bird dogging dropped or flying small parts. If she doesn't run to it, and point it like a bird dog, all I have to do is sight between her ears to know exactly where it landed.
                    She's even pawed grip screws out from under the desk for me. Waits for a kitty treat, then back to the supervisor perch. Works cheap.

                      Bring whatever you feel like shooting and enough ammo to feed it for as long as you want to stay.

                      I'll likely bring a Mosin, a couple of Mausers, an AR, a Camp 9, a couple of .22 rifles, a 1911, a shotgun and some black powder pistols. Maybe less if the pile looks too big to clean afterward.
                      What about coffee, a chair and table? Some Tri-tip?
