When my grandpa died I got his rifle from gandma.
I have now passed it to my oldest grandson with documentation of when grandpa got it and how I got it and instructions for him to pass it to his oldest grandson when that time comes.
It is a Stevens Marksman .22 single shot that grandpa bought back in the late 19 teens.
My grandson shoots it every time we go to the range and has gotten quite good with it.
