1910 Winchester 94 .32 special. Got it from my grandpa, and his dad had it before him.

I have a .32 cal  1840s era Ohio Valley/ Pensylvania squirrel rifle and a post Revolutionary War Powder horn.  Both very nice pieces of history.

.22 caliber remington fieldmaster pump from 1946. It was GIVEN to me by a friend who didnt know the value. It books for about 350-500 in the condition its in. shoots flawlessly and works just as good as im sure it did in 1946.

1898 30-40 Kraig.  Hard to get ammo for it in Europe, where it is.

1917 savage bolt action .22 rifle. It used to be my old nieghbors fathers gun, but when he moved, it just gave it to me. Has his dads initials carved in it. Pretty cool old rifle. :tup:

1896 breach load .41 long colt I got passed down from my grand father.  The riflings were so gone that they changed it to a .410.  Double action and fun to shoot was my bird and rabbit gun while growing up.

EddyStone Model 1917 30-06, open sights w/stock flip up peep.  Built in either 1917 or 1918.  Shot my second deer with it at 12yo in New Mexico.  Snuck up on a little forked-horn mulie.  Had his back turned to me and head down feeding.  So, I shot him behind the ear when he lifted his head.  Gun is at my parents house in AZ, as Dad still takes her out every now and then.

I also have an old Stevens Model 311 side-by-side 12ga that is at least 40yo.  Let one of my buddies son shoot it the other day at Kenmore range while shooting 5-stand.

Beautiful old SxS there.
The reason there are so many Ruger upgrades is because they're necessary.
