It is likely the last S X S I'd ever part with.

I’ve got several that fall in the last to go category at the moment . But I have one that if my after life plans work out will never leave me . I have a circa 1881 W&C Scott Crystal indicator 10 gauge my grandfather was given when he returned home from WWII . Gun was used hard and somewhat abused before he acquired it , so it’s no great collector piece . But it’s special to me and since it appears I’ll have no male heirs other than a cousin , I’ll give him the rest of grandfathers Guns but the W&C Scott will go in the box with my ashes for eternity .
