Thread: Longest continuously owned firearms

I was given my great grandfathers 12g d/b Ward hammergun and a .22 M1906 Winchester pump when I was 11 years old, both of which I still have 65 years later. My kids and grandkids were all taught to shoot with the M1906 and I am still waiting for the first great grandchild to teach. A lot of the guns I bought as a primary school kid were confiscated by the Police when I was 19 as they were unregistered. Colt Lightnings, Winchesters, the M1906 and other rifles I was allowed to register and keep but I lost a clump of nice handguns :-(
