First shotgun was a Stevens Arms single shot 20 gauge. I still have it. It will hardly break open and its beat up, but I still have it. Actually my 88 year old father has it at his house. He used it last to kill skunks that dug in his yard at night. This 20 gauge began my long-time favor of that gauge.

Mine was a Winchester 37A in 20 gauge until my senior year of high school at which time I bought with my own money a Rem. 541S Sporter that I still have. Used to get 75-100 squirrels a year when I lived at home. The bolt handle went silver on this one 30 years ago. I loved hunting squirrels (squirls for Charlie ) and Mom could make em tender. That was my first experience spending real money on a gun and boy was that ever real money to me then. If memory serves it was $168.50, I do believe times have changed.
