Never Been Unhappy About a New Gun....Until Now

My parents are aging rapidly.

Mom's in a rehab center from a fall and Dad has Alzheimer's, so we are moving them into a small apartment at my sister's house. Hard to see parents get so old they can't take care of themselves. As we clean out their home and hold yard sales and get the house ready to sell, there are many things that we keep, due to the memories associated. Each of us boys got several guns and boxes and boxes of ammo. While I would normally be excited about an early inheritance, I am less excited about getting these new guns than I ever have been. Doesn't feel like Christmas - just a little sad.

Browning BAR II Safari - 243 Winchester
Winchester Model 94 AE - 44 Mag
Ruger Super Blackhawk - 44 Mag
Taurus Model 65 - 357 Mag

Feels.....weird.
It’s never easy. I lost father about 5 years ago on Halloween. I couldn’t be there because me and my stepmom couldn’t get along. Enjoy what you can with your parents because you can’t get it back. Hold onto your toys with much love.
