What's this?

That’s Awesome. Old family guns are great.


I have a 16 gauge shot gun my Great Grandfather won At a county fair in 1917. He paid 50 cents for a raffle ticket. He used it to hunt for birds during the Great Depression to help feed his family. I use it to hunt quail once in a while. I thinks it’s great to have that history behind it.
