But for $50.00 I figure I put it in a Boyd's stock get a 20 round magazine, and spray paint the whole thing in a camo pattern it will make a nice squirrel rifle. :lol:

Now that's what I am talking about. That old '06 will kill, skin and cook a squirrel in one simple motion, and do it in style. :wink:

Will you shoot this one or is it too valuable? I would really like to come to your house and play with your toys.

Leave it as it is. The ages have been at work on it and man can only mar it.
Don't hit at all if it is honorably possible to avoid hitting; but never hit soft.

I'm unsure on this one, I have a very nice Gibbs 03a4 that I shoot so I don't feel the pressure yo shoot this one, but I would like to try it once.

“Freedom is the right to tell people what they do not want to hear.” George Orwell, English novelist, essayist, and critic, 1903-1950

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

That's because it's outdated and she's been seen in it. Can't be seen in the same car forever. Kind of like why can't you wear this dress, because I wore it at so and so and can't wear it again. It a fashion thing us guys don't understand or get!
