i think my dad has a mossberg single shot shotgun. i know he's got an ithaca police model from like the 20's or 30's. still used it up until a few years ago when boar hunting. it jammed on him and he since went to a ruger ar15 type. dont know its particulars. if he still has that mossberg,i remember shooting it when i was about 14 and it near breaking my shoulder. i still shot it a second time though,...and was bruised for weeks.

me personally? never hunted a day in my life. i'm trash and own a Taurus 38 that has never been shot and a single shot 22 ranger (marlin made but labeled for sears in the 30's)

 

 

 

i dont have any aga campolin knives.  but i have a few AKC ones. being a cottage industry,they all sort of share the same parts.

i have an akc 11 inch imitation ivory handle stiletto.

an akc minion otf. probably the most practical,but also lacks the eye appeal of a stiletto.

a dark horn handle leverletto. love this one. carried it for ages until the horns on the guard kept tearing holes in my pockets.

I have a Roughrider knife, https://www.ebay.com...redirect=mobile
Like this one, when sharpened right, it holds a great edge.
It's my every day carry.

It demonstrated that the Japanese mainland was vulnerable to American air attack, served as retaliation for the attack on Pearl Harbor, and provided an important boost to American morale. The raid was planned, led by, and named after Lieutenant Colonel James Doolittle, later General of the United States Air Force.[4]
