Cammo patterns on shotguns, rifles, handguns, slingshots, pocketknives. How in the world did my poor old grandfather manage to bring home any game when he was growing up in the 1930's without any tacti-cool cammo shotguns? All he had was a blued-steel Remington Model 10. Poor old grandpa. It's a good thing he didn't starve before he made my dad or I wouldn't be here now.

I love the Remington Model 10, your Grandpa had good taste. : )

Yes he did. He left me a Colt Detective Special when he passed away (1923 - 2004) and a Marlin Model 60. I still own both of them.

But I wish he had held onto the Remington Model 10. Evidently he also had a Mauser C/96 Broomhandle (when he was a kid) which was mostly used in the fall when they slaughtered the hogs. Hard to say what happened to those two guns.
