    My Dad's old shotguns (pic heavy)

    My Dad grew up in Michigan and was an avid duck and quail hunter. This is his collection of shotguns that he will pass on to me one day.

    All 4 with some old ammo and CA hunting guide. They are beautiful pieces of artwork


    Old ammo


    My Great Grandpa's 12 gauge Lefever. My Dad said it is over 100yrs old. My grandpa made the forearm and did all the checkering on it. He also added the recoil pad. Very gorgeous rifle.




    Some amazing checkering my Grandpa did

    Very nice!! Checkering looks great. Not a plastic rifle.

    Double barrel? You'll make Biden proud!

      I will post pics of the 20, 28, 410 and my Dad's Remington .22 targetmaster he got in 1958. It is cool to hear old stories from him of hunting and what not.
