    Like I have said before my dad finally brought me my family guns here are some pics. These are all family guns, My grandfathers M1, The first shotgun my gradfather ever bought, the k22 was the first pistol my grandpa bought after the war, The stevens was my dads first rifle, The Browning Lightning was bought for me when my dad found out my mom was pregnant, the WCF was given to me by my grandpa. They have finally all came to live with me, I am a very happy and profoundly lucky guy today.

    wow, looking thru thoes pics i held my breath. so much family history buried in the metal. this is a solemn occasion. congradulations on becoming the caretaker of the family histories. i only wish my grandpa had something he could pass down that ment alot to him, but on the other hand. thank god he never had to serve on the front.

    Yeah I have a safe, I bought a Franklin 35 when I found out they were coming this year. I am still in awe at the history that walked into my house yesterday. I have barely put down The Browning Superposed Lightning. Found out today with some research that it was made in 1963. They 25-20 was built in 1910, and the M1 Carbine was built by General motors. With the stories behind them and the history this is alot of un.
