I picked up 2 single shot .22 rifles today. 1. A Remington Targetmaster 510P in really good shape. Has peep sights and very little wear any place. I found out they were manufactured from 1939 - 1968. Up to that time no serial numbers were required, so it is impossible to know how old it really is 2. A Ranger Single shot .22 M-34 rifle. Very good shape, stock finish is still glossy with very few dings. Research showed that they were manufactured for Sears by Marlin. Will be taking them apart in the next day or so... or maybe after I get back from Arkansas at the end of the month. Will take them out and shoot them then. On another note, Went duck hunting yesterday. My partner and I shot 13 ducks total. 8 for me and 5 for him. I even got 2 doubles. We spilt the kills to make sure we shot had the right numbers of the various birds to make the Wildlife folks happy, 2 Drake Mallards 1 Hen Mallards 2 Drake Shovelbills 2 Hen Shovelbills 4 Drake Gadwall 2 Hen Gadwall Morning flight only gave us 3 birds, slow afternoon got us 2, the big run was the evening flight which came in large groups getting us the last 8 in the final hour and a half. Wish we could get a bird for every shot fired...:bang head: would have about 35 birds ! Only my second season hunting and am loving the hell out of it. Started last season with a Remington 870 express 12 gauge. Moved up some this year with the purchase of a Benelli Super Black Eagle II ... What a sweet gun. Yesterday was the third outing for the season. First day 0, Second day 1, Third day, 8 nice progression. Would be nice if I can limit each time. What a day it was :hurts::hurts:
