This thread has got me thinking,has the good old days done come and gone?Seems like the good guns and prices have.In the old days you could at least buy a common double barrel shotgun like a lc smith or parker or fox or savage?Now all we can get for working class hunters in a double is the russian baikel or stoger Brazeil POS>.When did it all go south so much?African safaris in the 60s were so cheap you could safari for a month and shoot the big five and all,even tiger hunt in india.Now days it is just so much more expensive,Do the old timers think it was just as high back then as it is today for the american working class man?I would hate to think were it all will end.Lotto drawings for short seasons i would guess.The real old rifles out there now will surely be collecters and very valuable.Do you collecters see the pre 64 winchesters like the 94 lever and the rest being like gold someday?Will all the future guns be plastic?
