My dad never got me a rifle growing up. My brother got two rifles. But what he didn't get was use of my dad's. I did, he didn't, so everyone my dad owned was mine too. 20 ga shotgun from Wards, 22 Stevens were the main ones I used. My brother was the wrecker of things not his own, I was the fixer of things. Hence the difference. My brother no longer wrecks things, but I still get to share my dad's collection, him not so much. I always thought that Wards shotgun was so cool because of its adjustable choke.
