My Grandparents on my Dad's side were poor Kansas farmers trying to survive the Depression on a 1/4 section of land 50 miles west of Wichita. They had a "Eastern Arms" .410 single shot, a Mossberg .22 bolt gun, and worn out .32 Iver Johnson wheelgun. When they moved to Colorado, my Grandpa scrapped enough money together to buy a used immedate post-war Model 70 in .270 for elk hunting. I have all of those guns now and they are PRICELESS to me and my family.
