    1st time going squirrel hunting...

    I was able to add another Squirrel to our freezer today. I did not take any photos this time. Have not gotten out at all in the last couple weeks due to school work. Today (actually yesterday) was the last time I could have gotten out due to other things going on, Thanksgiving Day, etc. Plan...

    As my wife says...Gun Porn!

    The Case Colours on this one came through the last Nine decades fairly well all in all... There was a "slight frosting" of surface rust, that came off farily well with Kroil and 0000 Steel Wool. On the bottom of the receiver (where it is just natural for a hand to carry the gun...) the steel...

    Hello I debuted my 1920's Iver-Johnson Champion (16 Gauge) today. Figured it was a good way to celebrate Armistice/Veteran's Day. Had a great time and think I will end up really loving this gun. Mark Technically, I hit this one, and then hit it again...

    1st time going squirrel hunting...

    I went out again today. Really could not ask for a better day, in the 60's dry and sunny. Spent a couple hours walking a bit, hanging out for a while...then another place, etc. Then I ended up upon a family taking a walk, so I ended up packing it up. Had a great time...did not fire a shot...

    1st time going squirrel hunting...

    Just grateful that my first one was a clean quick end. Killed outright, but did not mangle him either. When I skinned it, it looked like a lot of the shot went right through the underside and through the body, but not out through the top side of the hide. There were quite a few shot right...

    Dumb questions from a first time hunter....

    Update on this one. I ended up going out today, in the rain LOL. Fired one 16 Ga Shotgun Shell and collected one very dead Squirrel that fell out of the tree. Overall I had a great time, hoping next time it is a little more on the dry side though. Mark
