LOL ^ how true!
I think the 3 staples in everyones gun cabinet is just like you put it but having a general .22, pump shotgun & Marlin 30/30.
Walmart used to sell them around here before they stopped carrying guns and you could get one for a song and a dance. Lots of em around and darn good rifle too! Can get expensive to shoot but fun on special occasions...
There is and has been in my gun cabinet for a long time!
... as well as the others on your list!

Either way . . . there'll still be a 30-30 and a 22 and it's all good |

To this day I wonder why he did that, though I had stopped useing it. He did'nt need the money. LOL It was a Christmas present from him and Mom too !!! LOL | I got my Marlin 30-30 stamped SEARS, in 1962 as a pre-Christmas present. It was my first rifle. Opening day I got my first deer with one shot. Five years later my Dad gave me a 30-06, and gave the 30-30 to my younger brother. And than it was passed on to our youngest brother. In "79" Dad sold the gun, and it was lost! In 2000 I found the man who had it, and had passed it down through his three sons. I got it back on a trade, and have shot three more deer, with one shot each. Now I use other guns, for fear I'll break my run.

The beauty of using a Lever-action to hunt with, is bringing the biggest deer back to camp and hearing someone with a tricked-out Weatherby ask you what you shot it with...then the expression on their face when you pull out ye olde carbine

Inherited the old man's 336 when he passed away, I hadn't seen the gun in 30 some odd year's, last I knew it had been stolen? Anyhow according to my Mom she bought it for him in 1957, gun was manuf. in 1956. It's still a sweet shootin old gun.
