[QUOTE="Obi-Wan, post: 487055, member: 709"] Grandads and grandsons make memories that last forever. My son has my dad's Winchester model 100 308. The very last hunting trip my dad went on my son was 11 yrs old. My dad was going through cancer treatment at the time so I drove them out to the hunting shack and helped them get in. He shot his last deer, a doe with my son sitting next to him, he tried to get my son to shoot it for him but unknown to me my wife gave my son strict instructions " do not let grandpa talk you into shooting his deer " The 1st doe that came out my dad shot at it and missed, he was real shaky from the chemo he was going through. when the next doe came out he told my son to shoot if for him, which my son declined to do, my dad did end up shooting it. When my son turned 12 and received his 1st doe tag he asked if he could use grandpa's gun and hunt the same stand they were in the season before. So there we are this scrawny little 12yr old armed with a 308 back in the same shack he was the year before with my dad and out comes a doe, which he took down in 1 shot. The deer ended up in nearly the same spot as my dad's ended up the year before. My brother originally was given the 308 by my dad right before he passed but when he was asked by my son if he could use it and why he wanted to my brother said " go ahead it's your gun now" [/QUOTE]
