...these guns are.

These two photos are from a recent trip.

I believe that it will not take long for a PGCA member to ID the location.

Very nice but I have to admit no clue where at.

I took this shot two weeks ago in Havana.

This one-time gunsmith shop is now just an exhibition of guns...as most citizens are banned from any firearm ownership.

And yes, that is a Winchester 21 at the right.

The Browning Superposed has a pigeon club sticker on the stock.

Could that carry over to the U.S. in a generation or two? I'm very afraid it will.

Not if we are ever-vigilant about who we elect to office!!

Notice I said in a generation or two. We won't be here to vote. With all the leftist young people wearing Che Guevara t-shirts and not having a clue about what went on there, I wonder.

Kids sent home from school for playing using their index finger and thumb as a gun, sent home for pointing the finger and going bang, etc.

Mmm... point taken.

Precisely the reason that we must bring more young people into the shooting sports.

Dean:

Looks like he did, but the odds of this gun...

Bill - I'm not seeing a Superposed with a sticker. The only gun I see with a sticker appears to be some sort of tube-fed gun. 3rd from the left. A friend of mine says he may very well have been in that shop 50-60 years ago.

Echo that sentiment Dean, we just took about 20 4-H kids from the county to the district rifle and Pistol contest where they competed against 100 other 4-Hers their age.

Will do the same with the trap contest in two weeks.
