My dad gave me his guns a month before he died from cancer.
Do that.
We looked like we were crying over the sentimental guns and each story he told me about those guns.
In reality, it was a good excuse to cry over him getting ready to pass.

My grandfather let me borrow his favorite rifle to go on a hog hunt when I was younger. When I brought it back, he told me it was mine, provided that I’d never sell it. Definitely a fond memory I’ll never forget.
Are yall TRYING to make my eyes sweat?? Damn!!
I know what you mean though.. He wanted one of those Henry Golden Boys when they we re-introduced about a decade ago.. I opened my safe and pulled out a SA-22 and handed it to him and said this is for you.. He started tearing up then I started tearing up because he was tearing up..

I did the exact same thing with my grandpa. A few years before he passed he saw my .17 golden boy and loved it. Next time I went to visit I had a golden boy in 22 for him and he really loved that. And he made sure to tell everyone about it, and that it was going back to me when he passed. I need to break that thing out and go shoot it now that we talk about it.
