I LIKE THAT!

If it ever needs a new home ...

It was dad's last night on earth after going through three years of renal cell carcinoma. He hadn't spoken a word in days. His voice was gone, along with his cognitive abilities. He was essentially shutting down, but his body wouldn't let go. I was sitting in his study with my step-mother around 11 oclock or so, chatting and waiting. She asked me what my plans were for his gun collection and before I could even get a word out, dad rose a hand, and pointed at me and said with all the strength he could muster "DON'T SELL THE GUNS!" Then slipped back into sleep.

So, you got that to contend with. :)
 
I said if it ever "needs." Clearly, it doesn't need. Take good care of it (as if you wouldn't). Damn nice rifle for sure.
 
Duly noted, my friend. :)

She shoots to the sights at 100 yards. Prints about 3". Haven't shot her beyond that, but she was initially made for shooting tigers off the backs of elephants in India. Circa 1875 or so.
