Amen to that, Gary. Mine bought me a J.C. Higgins single shot .410.

I miss my Pop, but he's with me every day.

Happy Father's Day, Pop.

Happy Father's Day to all fathers out there.

My maternal grandfather gave me my first, his 28 gauge American Gun Company hammer gun. it rests in the safe with the paternal grandfathers old hammer gun and my father's Remington 878.

I have a vague recollection you mentioned that gun before. You should post some pictures of it.
