[QUOTE="TedKennedy, post: 2184936, member: 25419"] My uncle, a Korean War vet, had his house destroyed by the tornadoes in Del City 14 years ago. Looters stole some of his guns. (they were scattered everywhere, house completely gone) He recovered a Remington .22 auto rifle that he had bought in Schulter while on leave in '52 or '53. The tornado broke the stock, the finish on the metal was pretty well ruined. He gave it to me (I refinish old rifles) to fix up. I had a friend hot blue it, and I fixed and refinished the stock. Looks like new. I showed it to him in 2011, after I got done, he could hardly believe it. He refused to take it back, insisted I keep it and kill some squirrels with it. He passed away a few months later, I've shot the .22 a few times, but haven't taken it to the woods yet. I will after the 15th. [/QUOTE]
