Title: Speaking of guns: No. 7 of 25 special production
Post by: poppy on February 16, 2010, 12:27:37 PM
This was kind of a frivolous purchase, but my oldest grandson is named Henry and my farm is in Adams county, so when these were introduced, I took the bait.

It's the standard .22 model.

There is engraving in 6 different locations.

It's too bad that Henry's parents are anti-gun, so this rifle may not come to light in the family until he turns 21.

Lucky kid, poppy!   :)

Do you at least get to go shooting with him? The range or whatever?

Henry turns 5 in a couple of days, so still a little young to go shooting with Poppy, but some day.

Very cool!  We've two of those in the family (though not the nice engraved ones).  My 17 yr old son and our 21 yr old daughter each have one (two others have 10-22's).

Very nice shooting rifles.
