Awhile back my dad says he wants to down size.so i head to Miami at first he says I want to get rid of all his guns but one or two for protection naturally he brings everything out.then sorts them in two piles he kept about half .not a few for protection.still I ended up with another h@r leatherneck.a lc Smith trap grade Wich I learned to shoot birds with. A prewar model 70 carbine ,a Colt systema.and a vickers twenty two empire.which I don't know we're he got.cool little rifle with target sights but has a huge dove tail in the barrel.ill try to get some pictures up in a day or so.

Sounds good, looking forward to some picks. What caliber is the model 70.

also got his mclean and brady muzzleloader 10 gage and a jp grimmer 36 cal squirrel rifle the ten gage is a really nicely made shotgun although i think someone may have shortened the barrels at one time . i'm sure the 36 has been shortened its a carbine now
