It was 1964 give or take a year. I was on a jr. rifle team shooting 50 foot 4 position gallery with a .22. I was getting better month by month. Dad got a used Winchester Model 52 for me that Christmas. Heavy barrel with globe front sight and Weaver rear peep sight. Stock was a little nicked up, but boy was it a tack driver. It always shot better than I did. Sold it years later when it was just collecting dust.

Recounting the story reminds me how much I miss my dad all this years after his passing.
