When i opened the box and that smell hit me it really took me back to the good ol days in farmers fields in Maricopa as a kid.. Funny how a smell can trigger memories. Heck i flashed back to the whiskey and carton of smokes we use to give him to get us on fields for the season

Remember heck, I'm still shooting with them. Have recently showed some younger hunters paper shells that had never seen them before.

My first shot gun was a single shot 20 gauge and my grandpa insisted that the first box I shot through it was those dang paper shells. Every shell over expanded and wouldn't pop out of the gun without being pried! First and last time I shot paper shells!

 

Sorry to hear about your loss. I hope you and your buddy can have some fun burning through that ammo and remembering his paps!
