Guns and Blowin Shit Up!

As I have aged, I try to stay away from gun shows, too much temptation there. But I bought my Henry Golden Boy .22 about nine years ago at Cabela’s. They were having a big gun sale and I got it for $240.00 which was forty dollars off even back then. I think they retail for around $500.00 + now. But some gun shops can do better. Mine was made in the old factory in Brooklyn. But I must say, the action is butter smooth and it is very accurate.

If my purchases were limited to having a use for it I’d own three guns

Haha, yeah I guess so.
SO what three would those be?

Nice.
I still have my first gun which is a Ruger 10/22. I have owned it for 40+ years. I have shot....heck knows...10's of thousands of rounds with it. I used to be a seriously dead eye shot with it. It still shoots very true. Has some scratches on the stock, but mostly in fine condition.
Actually, I still own my first BB gun which is a daisy "lever action" that has my initials stenciled on it by my dad. It barely shoots, but I can't manage to get rid of it even though it really has no use anymore. Maybe that's why I long to own a lever action.... :huh:

Yes the Ruger 10/22, one of the best.

1 rifle, 1 shotgun and 1 handgun
I was just reading some bookmarks I had forgotten about, thought this one might be of interest
