Inherited

[George]

Well these past couple of days I have inherited a Mossberg .410 bolt action made sometime between late 40's-60's. I also have a Ruger 10/22 which had no mag, and is missing the front metal strap. Shoots like a charm after getting an aftermarket mag at BPS. I know this is an older model.

I researched the .410 its about $100 in good cond. Is there any place I can research the serial on the Ruger to see what year it was made?

ok i found it on rugers site.. its begins with a 120- so im guessing somewhere between 80-81. I LOVE this gun!!! ive always wanted one!

George, There was an old man that lived behind my parents and he had several old guns that I had admired through the years of my youth. I got married and my new wife and I went to visit the old couple. He told me he needed to sell some of the guns. The only on I could afford was a magazine fed bolt action Mossberg 20 ga. with a poly-choke. I bought it for $15 or $20 and it has been a good old gun. I use to be an avid hunter and have and have had many very nice guns. I would rather hunt with that old 20 ga. than the rest. I have had it for right at forty-three years.

Hope you enjoy yours.

Is the .410 a single shot?

I like .410's, they are cool little guns.
