This is the Springfield Model 1929 single 16 with 30” barrel that I mentioned last August in the Priceless thread that has been biding its time in the back of the safe waiting for the grandkids to get old enough to start enjoying it. Typical gun that you'd find standing behind the kitchen door in a midwest farmhouse of my youth. The garden was usually out the backdoor and the mother of the house could keep an eye on it from the window over the sink. When a groundhog was spotted among the rows she would reach behind the door, thumb back that hammer and slip the muzzle out the screendoor. Problem solved.
