re: What Is Your Pass Down Legacy Gun?

My Dad recently gave me 2 of his guns that he wanted me to have. One is a Browning BL-22. Awesome little lever gun that I'll never shoot. The other is a Weatherby rifle, chambered in 300 Weatherby Mag, absolute beast of a round. It has a 3 digit serial number, proof marks, and the caliber stamped in the barrel. Other than that- no other model numbers or names with the exception of the Weatherby logo. I contacted Weatherby and sent them pics, and they said it was built in 1950, was one of Roy Weatherby's early designs, and was the predecessor to the Mark V Series.
