so was at a hunter ball last night and a old family friend said that he wanted to talk with me, so after the meal I looked for him and he said how would like to have my grandfather's gun. He told me he bought it from my grandfather in it's a 410 I'm going to day to pick it up, pic and more info, to come.

That's a good friend- that gun will be where it belongs. Good to hear.

I have nothing of my granddad, he passed away in 1968,

What a nice thing for him to do. Your grandfather would be pleased.

Awesome and rare nowdays!

Sounds like the family gun has found its home.

Nice

Awsome!!!

Very nice Roy, a tribute to how you treat people.

That's awesome that you are able to own something that was your grandfather's.

True family friend for sure.

my Dad sold my Grandpa Rifle

My great grandfather bought each of his sons Winchester model 1994s with full length octagon barrels (circa 1901- 1905). My grandfather passed his rifle on to my mom (their only child) before he passed. Unfortunately, her home (in the city) was broken into and ransacked while she was vacationing at the lake (2001)... all the firearms in the house went missing. A week before, she had planned to pass them on to me upon her return; as my brother had no interest in firearms or hunting.

Sad deal^^^
