What a “gift of ruination” from your father.

All this talk of 22 Squirrel rifles reminding me that I had picked this one up a year or two back, put a vortex scope on it, sighted in, then forgot it was in a gun sock in my secondary gun safe.....

Might have to take it up to my place later this summer and shoot some bushy tails with it. I normally take my ugly little Nylon 66 when I go up there.

High Standard Sport King Special Deluxe model. No serial number....

I do remember it being quite the shooter last time I had it at the gun club.

Now, that's a nice looking gun.
