Nice to see the grouse numbers coming back up again. Haven't been enough around here to even think about hinting them. Always fun to hunt them but haven't done so for a few years and miss it. Congrats on a good weekend with Logan!

Excellent pics. Love the old single shot shotguns, classics from yesteryear. Your 410 (hammerless) looks a lot like my Savage Model 220, 410. I've been looking to add another Savage 220, but never see them anywhere. I think your son was having way too much fun

I've been looking to add another Savage 220, but never see them anywhere. I think your son was having way too much fun It is a 220 actually. I have a line on a nice clean 20 gauge as well that I hope to add to the closet in the next couple of weeks. I really enjoy hunting with the low tech, small gauge stuff.
I have nothing clever to put here.

You can’t beat that, good times. Nice guns too. My grandson just inherited my 20 gauge, it’s a model 37 Winchester that my dad handed down to me about 50 years ago. I hope he gets as much enjoyment out of it as I did.

Good job, Rob and Logan! Great photos too. Cool firearms you have pictured there. I have a few firearms I would like to take on a grouse hunt or two but the grouse numbers are down so bad around here that I have seen more bears this past year than I have grouse. I saw one bear.
I'm just happy to be here! Today I'm as young as I'll ever be and and older than I've ever been before!
