50 years ago. Hard to believe.

Bay City 16 Ga.break action,27" barrel, modified choke. Inherited from my Grandfather who passed away in 1960.

PS: Sold it at a garage sale in Elkhart,IN when we were moving to South Carolina in November of 1996. I really do miss that gun, and alcohol was definitely a factor!!
