Thread: Legacy Rifles

Not sure where best to put this. My 23 yr son said the other day he was finding the bush hunting too easy and wondered out loud about shooting for awhile with open sights. I thought for a moment and asked him if he would be interested in using Grandads sporterised .303 and he was surprised it was still around but very keen.
Now I shot my first 6 deer with that same rifle some 38 years ago and while I don’t know exactly when dad shot his first deer I have a photo when he was on a real adventure at age 18 up the Rooney River with that same rifle before it was sporterised. He definitely shot a deer on that trip in 1948 so about 75 years ago.
Will upload some photos if I remember how
Anyone else with a legacy story?
