Had a family get together this weekend and my Mother had me walk out to her car for a moment, said there was something she wanted to show me. Strolled outside to be greeted by this beauty. It had been hanging on the wall at my grandparents since I was young and even before I was really into firearms, or even knew who the Duke was, I always had said I liked it. Its been a few years since my grandfather has passed, but apparently my grandmother remembered my interest in it as a young boy. Unbeknownst to me, she told my mother to make sure to pass it down to me one day, Sunday happened to be that day.
These are a couple stock photos I found online as I didn't take pictures of mine. I have the rifle, and the wooden wall mount. The rest of the stuff either my grandmother has buried someplace or it isn't around any more. It appears to have been fired before but its in great condition.
I'd never heard of .32-40win, so I learned a little about a new caliber and its history too which is always fun.
