I remember going into Kmart and seeing two 410 SxS'S on the rack.It was the sxs that appealled to me.I asked the gentleman if I could hold it. He said sure. My mom arrived while I was standing there drooling profusely. She could see that it was what I wanted but we had no money. That night I asked dad at dinner and he said he did not have the money. A day later I had a paper route and the 410 went on lay away. It was my fist shotgun and I learned to hunt with it. Two years later I bought an 1100 which I shot for about fifteen years.I have seen them come back into style. I never really cared as to what others shot. I have always enjoyed the lure of a sxs. Sorry to say but the 1100 just sits there in the safe as a reminder of good times.I think it's going to be sxs from here on out but I must confess, I do have a weak spot for a merkel 201e in 20 ga. I have never even shot an over and under. I would like a Parker or L.C. Smith but with two girls to send through school I think I'll just be happy for what I have.
