My Father -in-law came down this weekend and surprised me with this nice little "present"...
A 1968 Winchester Model 88 in .308!
His 3 sons are not into guns and he felt I would most appreciate this fine weapon. So, he graciously gave it to me.
He bought the gun in 1970 (or somewhere close to that - he doesn't remember exactly). He has never fired the gun although I'm starting to gather some interesting facts about the gun. He was however, very religious about keeping it cleaned and oiled. I remember this gun but have never shot one myself. I seem to recall the dude "kicked like a mule".
God Bless you Dad and Thanks!
I'm open to any thoughts and/or feedback.

You don't see many Winchester M-88 anymore.
