My Dad bought me a Savage 22/410,,,
My Dad bought me a Savage 22/410,,,
This was way back in time when I was about 11 years old.
All of my friends had repeaters of some form or another,,,
I, being the incredibly spoiled brat that I was, shunned the Savage.
It stood unused for several years in the closet,,,
When I got a little older and less spoiled,,,
I went to the closet to get it out,,,
Lo and behold it was gone.
I asked Pop about and he said,,,
"You never liked it so I sold it to Glenn (a neighbor)."
The ignorance/arrogance of youth bit me there.
Pop had even made me a target for it,,,
He used one half of a broken bow as a spring,,,
Hit a 3" plate with the .22 and it would them throw a clay pigeon straight up.
But again, I was just a kid who knew nothing except what the TV told me,,,
And the TV said that if you didn't own a Nylon 66,,,
You had no gun at all.
