I still have my dad around and I thank God for everyday that I do!! He started taking me hunting at 4yrs old when I was small enough to fall through the train trestle tracks we had to cross to get to where we were going. I still remember being rushed off that 3 eyed trestle when a train came one time. A true gun nut in his own right, I shot my first six gun (S&W .41mag) at 5yrs old and have been fond of them ever since. Because of his influence I bought my first Marlin at 8yrs old with a paper route job I had (a Golden 39A Mountie). Him having an FFL and so many gun nut friends I have purchased many a good deal of guns at great buys....so many good memories of hunting and fishing with him and my brothers...I cherish them all.
He passed his name to me as I did to my first son..... (SGB SR, SGB II, SGB III) TRES HOMBRES 4-Ever
I love you dad!!!
Happy Fathers Day to you and all dads!!!
