Well Dale had a very valid point. When I was a kid I had a small collection of firearms and was fairly good with all of them. When I married Karen 33 years ago I knew that we planned on having kids. I also knew that I was losing more and more vision. I made the decision to sell all of the guns. My daughters wish that I would have kept some of them so they could have learned to shoot. I mistakenly sold some collectable rifles for practically nothing. A 32 cal rim fire hexagon barrel Savage with a 3 digit serial number. I sold it for $50. Oh Well! There have been so many cases where a child got their hands on a gun in the house. A few years ago, I don't remember exactly where, a 5 year old got his father's, a police officer, revolver and shot his dad playing. I still would not mind possessing Chet's old 45/410 only because it was so unique. The only firearm that we have in the home is a conversational piece. It is an 1861 Colt 58 cal musket used in the Civil War. It belonged to my late father-in-law. I have been planning on making a display case for that musket. We have one ball from the time period that we purchased at Gettysburg. No powder or cap. I often think it would be nice if I had my old Daisy BB rifles and pellet guns for my 10 year old grandson. I had a lot of fun with them when I was 10.
