One hears of "...paying for the sins of the fathers..." but I sure am grateful that my father decided to hold onto the these weapons from the family division and taught us the love of fine weaponery...sad to say, the other weapons which were distributed amongst the rest of the family are long sold-last I saw was a .25 beretta about 20-25 yrs ago and a ML- (I could swear now it was a 3 band tower musket!) with another distant Grand uncle.
I also distinctly remember a drilling-9.3 rifle and SxS 16-cant remember the name now- and a VERY UGLY looking 32 French made revolver, (didnt look anything like a Peacemaker-which was a revolver for us in those impressionable days) dad had to get rid of them as he couldnt keep them on his licence-gave away the 32 to to a first cousin and sold the drilling to another cousin for 3000 rupees...There were times when we felt like getting rid of the jefferey too-mainly because of the lack of oppurtunity to use it and the high cost of ammo-last 20 I got from sambandam i think, was 100 bucks each!and getting a 'treasured' 30-06 instead, hopefully better sense prevailed, in spite of WC's visitations.
Now that I've inherited it, I'm going to keep it.Who knows, may be my son may take his buff with it someday?
Best

What I find particularly reassuring is that you have the future firmly in sight - may all of us impart this love of guns and the outdoors to our progeny. As I told you Hornady are planning to start making 450-400 ammunition again considering how popular the calibre is becoming these days and very soon, you would be able to buy ammunition for it whenever you travel abroad.
