SnowshoeRe: "enough ammo" I have a whole collection of guns but only one I purchased myself (a .22 single shot rifle). All family handmedowns. A brass framed 1866 Henry lever action that belonged to Great Grandfather. A 1891 Swiss of Grandfathers. A converted cap and ball Kentucky rifle that was a flintlock when an ancestor carried it in the Revolution (so the family legend goes). A pair of M1 Carbines given to Uncles by the Guard during a "red scare" of the late 1940's. A bunch of pistols, shotguns, military rifles ect. all inherited. And there is nothing particularly unusual about my collection, except that all this stuff was in the family. I know bunches of folks around here with a much larger and more potent collection.

I have a whole bunch of books too, some were in the family in the late 1700's. I have law books and textbooks ancestors used in college back BEFORE the Civil War.

Do you come from a long line of educated folk?
