I only have one rifle I can think of that has a “story”. Its a Model 57 with a letter of provenance from the original owner. My father purchased it from him back in 1994 and the M57 ended up in my collection after my father had passed. The original NoBuckl sling has the mans name on it and the letter is very interesting. Its actually quite refreshing to try and place yourself in the mans story and think of those simpler times.

Some of you have seen this one before, but I thought it fit the topic. Hopefully the letter file will open.
