still got my first shotgun also,its a H&R folding 410,think they made the last of them in the late 30s.my grandpa gave it to me when I was a little fart early 50s I think.it has a 22in. barrel & breaks all the way with the trigger guard fitting in the fore piece.the oldtimers called them saddlebag guns,down here in the fl flatwoods they used em to pepper the ass of scrub bulls that holed up in the thickets to get em to hunt the herd so they could be penned & dipped.I got to use it for boobwhite quail & dove, since you had a single shot,and they would give you only a 1/2 box of shells you learned how to shoot pretty well.got it on my office wall and it brings back lots of memorys every time I take it down & clean it.

Mine’s a Mossberg 183T .410 with full choke. You want to impress somebody, shoot trap with it.

I got my .22 at 10, my 20ga at 11 or 12. I wish I still had that shotgun. I was a trader, like my old man, till I realized I was giving pieces of myself away. A fool, in other words. Still got my .22, though.

I like to tell folks that I got my first shotgun for my birthday when I was 10 years old. Still have it. Lots of city folks, foreigners, and even a neighbor or two originally from Texas are appalled, both that I got a gun then and that I still have it now. Different worlds.

Don’t vote for Barry if you want to carry one at all. The change he’s talking about has no hope in it for gun owners.
