Dad had a 1873 38/40 winchester with cleaning kit in the but. It hangs on the wall at my mom's house along with his henrey 44mag just to name a couple. I asked that the 38/40 to come to me but i have three brothers and one thinks he should get everything. He might need to be careful as he may get his drunk ass more then he can handle.

Funny story about the 38-40; One of my journeymen I worked under was a Polish dude from a big family. Deer hunting season was a family affair. He'd bundle up his aged mother, carry her to a deer blind, and hand her the '94. He'd no sooner got back to his blind when he heard the crack of the 38-40. He waited a few minutes and headed back to her spot to help her with the deer. She already had it gutted when he got there. He looked the deer all over and couldn't find a hole in it. Finally found a pea sized chunk out of the base of one of the antlers. She'd gutted the bastard while it was alive! Scared the hell outta Vic. He knew if the deer had have come out of it, it more than likely would have killed his mom. True story.

Morning folks happy hump day. Slowly starting to move. Sleep seems to be the worst thing on my shoulder. Takes me about a hour to get it moving good. I'm gonna ride up to the shop to hang out for awhile it's good to visit for awhile. Gut a deer while it's still alive, wow that's a hell of a woman.
