A couple nice ole guns your father had, there Dave.
Sure there are a lot of fond memories there.

Dad had only one firearm in the house growing up,
it was a Winchester Classic 30-30.
My nephew was to get it, mother gave it to my sister.
Her, my mother and I were talking a few months before mother passed.
My sister said she didn't remember her giving it to her, and that she had no idea where it was. :oops:
So I have no idea where it is, she probably sold it and just didn't want to say.

This was my fathers first firearm, a Remington 510 target master. It's pretty accurate but the trigger is horrible.
He passed in 2011 at 84. He said his mother got it at a filling station with green stamps when he was 12, so that would put it at a 1939.
I refinished it 5 years ago.
Cool little rifle, congrats.
