    Nice! The stock on that marlin is one of the better looking ones I've seen.
    What make/model are the other 2?

    I didn't get a Marlin. That's a Ruger. The old one is a Springfield Arms, 1929 I think. The other... can't remember but it's a 20 gauge lever activated break barrel.

    I thought the lever gun looked odd. Figured it was a single shot.

    It does look like a 10/22 now that I look at it.

    Yea...I'm on my phone. Can't see squat. I've never seen a ruger with checkering. Is it stainless also? My screen sux.

    The lever scatter gun is cool

    Pretty sure I would have noticed if it were stainless; its just new and shinny .

    The lever gun may be an itacha. Nice guns.

    Itacha, yes. The name was escaping me. Not sure how to point it, though-- the hump by the cocking lever makes it so I can look down the barrrel.

    It's a scatter gun, just point it in the right general direction...

    If that single shot an h&r? I have one like that, but cherry wood stocked.

    The old single shot is a Springfield, the lever action on is an itathca.

    Maybe that works with critters, but not with clays at 16 yards.

    Think he said its a springfield. I thought it was H and R too. I always wanted one of those h &R back when they could be had for like $110 new. Also wanted a rifle too think they were NE?

    A rabbit or dove will move just as fast and more erratic than a clay. Point and shoot.

    The old lady picked up a H&R pardner pump today, though.

    I can't tell what I'm pointed at with the hump in the way of the bead. Why is there a bead if it's not visible to the shooter?

    Are you looking down the barrel like a rifle of keeping your head up more and looking like a shotgun?

    Very nice trio you've acquired. The 10/22 is a beauty, you're never gonna regret that one.
    The Springfield will outlive you, solid and reliable.
    The Ithaca is a great one also, you just have to modify your sight picture to help shoot it. The lock-up wasn't designed to be practical, more to resemble a funky falling block, if I remember correctly. If you decide that you don't like it, let me know, I call "Dibs!" I'd love to have one of those.
    Great stuff ! :thumbs:
    edit- the 10/22 has a great stock BTW, love to see more pics. of it.
