Just bought my son his first rifle

[Jake Balam]

Got an old J.C. Higgins model 108.13

Traded two grocery store new york strip steaks and a bottle of cooking oil to my downstairs neighbor.

Gun is in pretty decent shape for being as old as it is. Stock is beat up, and barrel has some surface rust from sitting in his closet.

Pulled the barrel and trigger assembly, no rust, no rot.

Going to sand it, refinish it, and give it to him for his 9th birthday.

Your a great dad! Now pat yourself on the back, and make yourself a "promise" to teach him SAFE HANDLING! and buy him alot of ammo
