The only gun that my father had that I remember was a 12 bore Fox Sterlingworth that he carried in the trunk of his car (he was a traveling salesman in the later part of his working life and his clients would often invite him to go hunting) It was in a canvas breakdown case and the trunk of his car must have leaked some as it had some rust and dings from use to the metal and wood. Several years before he passed in 1974 I had the gun completely restored to like new. When I gave it back to him I think that I could see a tear in his eye remembering past hunts an game taken. I'm glad that I did it.
