Just passed down my lever action 30/30 to my grandson.

It was strangely cathartic. He is taking it hunting next weekend I am not about to freeze my ass off for venison anymore.

It is his birthday.

1. Was it a Savage?

Winchester?

Great brush gun.

2. A Marlin

My dad got it for me in 1988 for graduation. It is a great meat and potatoes gun.

5. Is there any other 30/30?

I have the same age rifle. Decent scope on it.

I just like to shoot that gun. Super manageable and fun

7. My father-in-law had a Marlin, an old one.

Pre-1900. He sent them the serial numbers, and they sent him back some documentation on when it was originally made or sold ( not sure which).

The date was somewhere around 1890.

Many years ago, my grandfather gave me his Winchester Model 12 (20 gauge) and a Winchester double barreled 20 gauge.

Every time I took them out, I thought of him. I’m sure that your grandson will do the same.

From one generation to the next

4. Well I skipped my millennial sons

They did not hunt.

6. Understandable

I don't either. I'm purely recreational
