I started my hunting career with a Stevens 311 in a .410 that was my uncles. The first time he took me to a wooded lot across the street from his house and let me fire it.
I used that shotgun for a few seasons killing squirrels and a few cottontails. I loved that shotgun and had to give it back as his grandson was coming of age.

When in Germany in the service I bought in the gun club a Remington 11-48, .410 with 25" vent barrel imp. cyl. I loved shooting that gun also and still have it.
