My Uncle Kennie gave me a plain jane one back in the late 50's, just after I got out of the service. Kennie owned a bunch of rice ground up by Colusa California, I was in Palo Alto going to school, so every weekend was off to waterfowl on "The rice ranch". Mag 10 loads could be purchased from Stanford sport shop, with my employee discount, so they were affordable. I shot that gun a lot, read everything Askins and Elmer wrote about them, and verified it every legal weekend. Gun got a lot of use on the San Francisco Bay as well, with my Dad in his scull boat. When my cousin Keith came back from Nam, he insisted I give it back, Kennie having passed by then, I had no choice but to do so.I imagine it ended up in some central valley pawnshop, traded for booze money...What a gun!
