When my dad was in The Navy his storage building was cleaned out so when I was about 12 and told him that I expressed an interest in learning to hunt we were both kind of starting from scratch.

I didn't need a smaller youth size so we went to the store and I got a Quality 20g pump dad still keeps it at his house but it will be mine again. My first gun that I bought was an 11-87 light countour 12. It was brand new and the most beautiful thing in the woods. After 8 years of hard use there is one good scratch on the forarm, the rest is pristine for now. Someday my grandson will carry it proud.
