[QUOTE="crkckr, post: 1657453, member: 78056"] I think you did the right thing having the barrel replaced and the rifle checked over by the experts. Like you, I would not want to leave an unserviceable rifle to someone who might not know the difference and then perhaps one day attempt to shoot it. Another thing I would suggest is that you write down the entire story of your father & father-in-laws service and your own, as well. This will have a lot more impact for your heirs than a verbal story. Make sure you add in as much information about the rifle as you can so they will appreciate even more your reasons for keeping it and passing it down. Include info regarding ammo as well, just to be sure it gets handled correctly after you're gone. I'm certain the effort will be appreciated by someone down the line! Cheers, crkckr [/QUOTE]
