That's a sweet gun that I'm sure has a ton of stories to tell. I also say keep using it. At least a few more years.

I always remove the butt-plate on the old rifles to see if someone stashed some extra ammo or something in the stock. Maybe the owners name etc. Sometimes a roll of dimes or pennies to add a little butt stock weight! Chris

I inherited an old single shot Stevens pistol model 35 from my granddad when I was a boy. According to FFG, it was made in the 1930s. I used it on the trapline for a few years.
The difference between animals and humans is that animals would never let the dumbest ones lead the pack.
