My first gun was a Winchester Model 67 .22 LR. My Father's Uncle, my Great Uncle Art, was a gunsmith in North Seattle. Art oil finished the stock, fitting it with an ebony forearm tip and a grip cap, and checkered the grip and forend. He also fitted a Mossberg scope. My Model 67, along with my Mother's early "finger groove" Model 67, my Father's Remington 16-gauge AE-Grade double (P136036) and a .44 calber H & R Model 1905 were stolen from my Father's house in 1978.
