  1. The wall hanger is a 12 ga win 1911 S.L. (1912-14) also known as the widow maker. It was a poor attempt at competing with the browning A5 12 ga. The reason for the name was due to paper shot shells ( before the plastic case) the paper would swell due to moisture thus making the barrel cocking action impossible to un jam except to mortar it on the ground and setting off the charge usually towards ones face!! Very crazy history lesson. Will be putting this one out to pasture / retired!!
  2. Winchester !!
  3. More clues .308 on the left!?
  4. That's a nice range half in doors I suspect I would like more pix of the range with details? I shoot in a covered area but take in the elements of the day just as fun or a chalange.

  6. Got to go spend some time with aunt and unkle and this Time they came threw with there promise to hand down some old relics from my side of the family. Story was bud finished his tour in ww2 and was done w the army came home and bought 3 winchesters in a package deal! This isn't my first experience from history. Back then you bought a lot (set) of all worthy hunting guns at once as a package ? Stuff was that cheep or ? Either way you got all you needed at once so I ended up with 2 of the 3 the third was a 30-30 win of said era that went down with the ship in Alaska on my other unkles fishing boat! Now in my posesion are these two rems of my grandpa. Lets see if you can decifer from the pix..
