I killed my first squirrels with a Lefever Nitro Special nearly 50 years ago.
The gun is still in my safe.

I've never cared for purple; nice to see those red 16ga hulls. My dad always shot Remington Shur-shot or Winchester Rangers, so 16ga hulls will always be green or red to me. Neat bag too!

My first game ever was tree rats, and they're also my favorite on the table. I ain't uppity, I just get around. Hah!

The bag was an estate sale score ages ago. It's Canadian military, has a removeable rubberized liner. Literally the perfect game bag.

I have a Brady with removable rubber liner that I use for fishing; yours looks a bit bigger.
