I have my dad's old Rem. 760 in .300 Sav.  It has a 5 digit serial # that dates it to the 1st year of manufacture.  I have refinished it, blue and wood, because it is a sentimental gun, not something worth a lot of money, as he shot the heck out of it, and killed a chit pot full of game.  

I bet that Tootsie Roll (forearm) rifle is a shooter!  I love those pumps!  

I have a 1955 760 Gamemaster .30-06 ADL (5 diamond forearm) that is brand new!  Was sitting in a closet in Pennsylvania for 55 years!  I put a new scope on it and it' my main deer rifle now.

Still shoots less than an inch group even with factory ammo.  And it gets shot once a year, whether it needs it or not..    I also have my mom's gun, same as yours, except in .300 Sav. as well.  

It has the old Weaver tip off scope mounts.  They are pretty cool, if your scope fogs up, you just flip the scope and rings off to the side, and shoot iron sights.

My uncle has a '58 760 in 270 and i have seen him make some incredible shots. it has these weird quick detach scope mounts so you can take the scope off in the thick stuff put it in your pocket and then put it back on. He said they are leupold mounts that he bought in either '62 or '63 when he bought the leupold 2 x 7 that is still on the gun. i didn't think they would work but he even did it for me one day and that thing was still dialed after pulling it off and putting it back on.

For some reason these two outshoot any of my newer guns (atleast when I shoot them).

I don't own anything too valuable, but I have some good quality older firearms.

A 1927 Model 12 Winchester in 16 gauge.  A Beretta Golden Snipe o/u in 20 gauge.  A Belgium Browning A5 light twelve.  A Belgium made Browning 30-06 lightweight with a Mauser action.  A Belgium Browning .22 semi auto.  An ugly stepchild 7mm, Winchester 100 in .284.

I need to get some photos of these and my lucky fishing lure to share on here.

We need Pics!!!

I forgot to post about the Remington Model 11 I have too. It was built in 1928. 12 gauge, full choke, semi auto. No cracks in the stock either. It's fun to shoot and groups nicely too.

I've got a Stevens "long Tom" 12 guage shotgun that is a single shot, break action with a 40" barrel.   Yeah, that's what I said, a 40" barrel.  I'll find a pic when I get home.

Damn. Does it fit in a safe?

Not any pistols yet.... So here's one 

My dad gave this to me about 20 years ago.  There is no model number on it...  I contacted Smith & Wesson to ask them about it and gave them the serial number.  They told me it was a prototype gun.  .357 magnum on a 44 frame.  Looks similar to the model 27 and 28.  There is an S before the serial number.  Apparently that means something but I can't remember.

I have a bolt action 410 - J.C. Higgins - Model 101.25 - Sears, Roebuck & Company.  It was my dad's and my uncles.  My grandpa cut down the stock to better fit the kids.  I killed my first phesant with that gun.  It's about time to pass it on to my cousin for his kids.
