Years ago I had a few firearms
A 1860 Colt Army Cap/ball .44 and a 1862 Remington Cap/ball .44 both all original and excellent condition
2 1911 Colt .45,nickel plated all original in presentation case my Dad brought home after he helped clean out the armoury at Fort Hood Texas.
They weren't able to find out who they belonged to,his CO told him to take care of them,so he brought them home!
A Remington 700(I think)30-06 bolt with 3x6 variable scope
a 1950's vintage Charles Daly 12 ga over/under skeet gun
a Remington 3200 12 ga skeet gun
a Perazzi 12 ga 34" single/30" over/under combo se t(I used to do alot of trap and skeet shooting)
a Dan Wesson Pistol Pak .357 Revolver with interchaneable barrel 4",6" and 8" (engraved by a friend of mine-my favorite handgun)
several Winchester Model 94 lever-action Commemeratives( Bi-Centennial,Wells-Fargo and a couple I don't remember the names)
and finally a S&W .38 revolver w/4" barrel I carried in the Nam in a shoulder holster while flying in a CH47 on rescue/salvage runs,along with my M-16
Most were sold after my first daughter was born because my ex-wife didn't want them in the house. The rest were sold later after we were divorced to pay for the attorney fees
and in order to keep my house(which I still have). My second wife doesn't like guns either so I guess it was ineveitable I wouldn't have them now.
I really do miss them,but now my eyes are so bad from gloucoma that I probably wouldn't be able to hit anything more that 50 feet away.
I do have a lot of fond memories of my trap/skeet days though and a few of my trophies too!
You guys have some beautiful firearms! I'm envious for sure! Hold on to them forever,pass them to your sons and daughters and keep our hertitage alive!!!
