My last ones to go would be Dad's and Grand Dad's Stevens doubles. Just got Dad's back from the stock repairman actually, it was badly cracked through the head from years of shooting. He made the stock for it out of a Herter's blank in the early 60's so I couldn't bear to replace it. Cost me more than the gun is worth to get it fixed but I was glad to spend the money needless to say.
