    Do you still have your first gun(s)?

    I was searching through my mom's garage the other day looking for something or other and ran across my old Ithaca .22 Lever action that my Uncle gave me when I was 13. He,along with my grandfather, being the main person who got me into shooting, every Thanksgiving coming here from Vegas and having a shooting day during the week he was here.

    So I brought the old gal home, did a little cleaning and dug out my .45LC Navy Arms 1875 Remington reproduction that my grandfather gave to me on my 18th birthday.

        That sucks! I could never imagine selling either of these two, anything else I own yes, but damn I feel for you.

            Yes it was really hard. Told the person if he ever wants to sell it to keep my number and I won't hesitate to buy it back. Was really attached it because my dad handed it down to me before he passed brings back memories

                Still have mine, only been in buy mode. Only sold a single one that was a group purchase that I didn't want from the get go.
                If it was a snake, it would have bit me.

                  Nope. It was a Chipmunk so it would be a little small for me.

                          The liberal see's the glass as half full and tries to take more.
                          The conservative see's glass as half empty and tries to keep it that way.
                          I'm with the people on the side just pouring water in the glass trying to get a drink!
