I bought back my first shotgun

About 25 yrs ago or so I sold the very first shotgun that my dad bought for me when I was about 8 years old or so. It's a Remington 870, lefthanded wingmaster. I sold it to a guy I used to work with because I wanted something newer and better and always regretted selling it. Last year he called me and asked if I would like to buy it back for what I sold it to him for so now it's sitting in my gun safe with the rest of the collection!
I remember getting it from Alco department store back in the mid 70's. Our family didn't have a lot of money so my dad put in on lay away and made payments. I still remember like yesterday the day we went and picked it up and walked out of the store with it to take it home.
Great to have it back. There sure is a lot of memories of days long gong hunting with my dad and my 870 wingmaster.
