I really enjoy this thread each year and only wish that I had more to contribute to it. This pic doesn't meet the criteria of a double gun, but at least its an old gun. It's a 20 gauge Winchester model 37 that my father bought me in 1963. I had already got a few squirrels with a borrowed 410, but this was the first gun that was mine. I shot a bunch of squirrels with it, my first buck, and my first gobbler with it.

I haven't used it in years, but I decided to take it out of the safe and go squirrel hunting Tuesday. That was the first time I've been squirrel hunting in years, and I went to a creek bottom where I remembered a productive hunt when I was 15. I did use a SxS in that hunt, so there's the connection to a double gun.

I cleaned the squirrels and my wife fried them for me. That was also the first time I've eaten any in years, but they were very good, as always. Nostalgia is nice for an old man.

I’m glad to see him working for it Shrapnel, my son could take a lesson. He couldn’t budge his. I asked what he would do if got it alone. He said “call you.”
