Mine is a mid 60s (can't remember off top of head)1100. Shoots straight, feels good.
Always liked the A5s too

Mine is a 1969 1100.

With out a doubt for me it's my PawPaw's Belgian A5. I use it once a year on a dove hunt, clean it, and return it to the case.

Mine isn't anything fancy, but I have a Mossberg Model 500 20 gauge that my Parrain gave me for Christmas when I was around 11-12. He passed away recently so it's been on my mind. I just pulled it out of the cabinet and wiped it down with oil a few days ago.

My Dad's old Lefever Arms Nitro Special 12 gauge SxS double barrel.
Not a fancy gun at all, but it sure killed a lot of ducks and squirrels.

I've got a Winchester 16ga, and a Winchester model 61. Both were my grandfather's handed down to my dad, then me.

Dad bought a sears & roebuck 12g pump a long time ago. Has a flash suppressor and adjustable built-in choke. Honestly not sure how accurate it is as I've never actually patterned it, but I shot my first dove with it.

A model 21 from 1938 that my long time hunting and dog training partner left me when he passed. Even though the wood is no longer original On the stock it's an awesome gun.

Same as yours, only shoots 2 3/4 and has non ribbed barrel which I love. Will be sending it back to have it reblued and worked eventually.

Sears single shot bolt action 410. I killed my 1st rabbit with it. It was a family shotgun that my dad and lots of cousins used through the years.
Model 700 .243. Killed many deer with it as a kid and still occasionally break it out.

Would be like me having a sentimental screw driver. I just don't get it.

Not a real fancy gun, but my dad gave me a 12 gauge 870 Wingmaster for my 11th birthday in 1983. I don't hunt with it much anymore, but it is still in pristine condition because he made me oil and clean it everytime it was even touched when I was a kid.
I put most of my guns thru hell duck hunting or running dogs, but not this one.

Mine would be a SBE Gen 1 that my grandfather gave me. It is not a 60 year old gun or anything but he hunted with it for several years and bought a sweet over/under and gave me the Benelli. I use it every time I hunt and I am very OCD about cleaning it. I will have that gun forever and hand it down to grandchildren too.

Yep non ribbed. We also have like a 86 1100 or something with a rib. Doesn't seem to shoot as well as the older one.

I inherited PowPow Cove's tools too. I treat them with great reverence.

I should post a pic of the bucket of crap tools my dad had when he died.

I have an old sportsman 58 that is sweet as hell....I still try to shoot it a time or two every year, but don't put steel shot through it at all..."

Now that both my father and grand father are gone all the guns they gave me over the years have sentimental value.
