Merry Christmas to you and everyone else. And yes it is great to see another Christmas. Reminds me 60 years ago my Christmas present was a Reminton Model 510 22rf. I was 8 years old, still have the rifle. Anyway Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all.

Not many of us old duffers around here any more.

I remember Christmas 50 years ago today. Brand spanky new Fox BST double 16.

I didn't realize how long it had been since I got the gun until this fall. I came out of a piece of public land and sat down an a bolder to talk to a couple guys in there truck.

The driver says 'Wow You don't see many of those old guns around any more."

I thought this gun isn't OLD. But then I got thinking that I got it when I was 14 and will be 65 in March.

Merry Christmas

Tom

LOL, I get the same treatment when I show up with 1952's Mod 70's. Most of the kids never saw them much less have a desire to own em.
Merry's back to you guys.

Popplecop,
We have somthing in common, I got a 512 for Christmas when I was 9. That was 53 years ago.

Multibeard,
I also got a Fox for Christmas 50 years ago, it is a Model B in 12ga .

I still have both guns. Lot of water over the bridge, shots fired, etc.
