My first owned gun was a Harrington and Richardson single shot 20 guage with a 3" camber and a modified choke that I was given by my grandparents for my 6th birthday. They felt that if I was given a BB gun first I would be careless with it, and they were probably right. I learned to respect that old 20 very quickly. Not only do I still have it but it has taken more squirrels and other game that any other gun I own. It is still in great shape too.

For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. - John 3:16 KJV

Then I commended mirth, because a man hath no better thing under the sun, than to eat, and to drink, and to be merry: for that shall abide with him of his labour the days of his life, which God giveth him under the sun. - Ecclesiastes 8:15 KJV

"The gun has been called the great equalizer, meaning that a small person with a gun is equal to a large person, but it is a great equalizer in another way, too. It insures that the people are the equal of their government whenever that government forgets that it is servant and not master of the governed." - 40th President of the United States Ronald Reagan 1911-2004
