Actually Dave, the pictures don't quite "say it all".
You found a book at grouse camp with a story by Col. H. P. Sheldon entitled "The Last Day" and in it was a short paragraph that pretty much "says it all". It was about his own son, I'm sure, who was about the same age as Danny is now and it was at the beginning of WWII when all parents thoughts were of the immediate future.This was Danny's first grouse hunt and I kinda get the feeling it won't be his last. He exemplifies what we remember of ourselves in our first years hunting and what we hope for in the youth of today and our traditions being carried on to future generations. Dave, will you please tell us all what that Sheldon paragraph says? |

Sounds to me like either someone dose not know how to properly place their gun in a rack or someone dose not know how to attach a gun rack to a wall.

The gun rack story is that I made it of pine in wood shop in 7th grade. It has served me well lo these many decades but the old pine decided to split right where the wrist of Dave's beautiful PH 16 with the 'Lettered' D grade stock rested in it. We watched helplessly as Dave's Parker crashed to the concrete floor. Thanks to all the Parker employees in Heaven for giving it a soft landing as the only damage was minor dings to the very edge of the muzzles.
