My father was a shotgunner and never owned a rifle. He bought me my
first rifle when I was 13, in 1953. It was a Winchester 32-20 w/oct. barrel.
He also gave me his Winchester Mod 12-20ga when I was 16. The 32-20
was loaned to my cousin when I went to the military and when I came back
he had sold it for $50. The Win. 20ga I still have and many, many more.
