My daughter decided to join me today in some fun on the sporting clays course, and to make it even more fun with our beloved L.C. Smiths. I was a little surprised she wanted to join me today, as it was a cold mostly overcast December day, perfect in my book but my daughter loves all things relating to warm weather and fun in the sun.

I decided this would be the day to have her learn to shoot a double trigger. I set her up with a 1946 featherweight 12 using RST Ultra Lights with 3/4 oz. of shot. She got the hang of it pretty fast (faster than I did) and was hitting targets before the cold got the better of her. While I finished up the the last few stations I suddenly realized that I had with me Fulton guns from almost the beginning (1893 Quality A1) to almost the end (1946 Field Grade) of the production run. And what a run it was!

As the light dimmed on this short December day and I headed back to the parking lot I was pretty sure this outing would be the highlight of the rest of my week. After all, I had just taught my daughter to shoot a double trigger on a L.C. Smith SxS!

I'm usually horrible about taking any pictures, but today I did and here they are of our cold outing and the L.C. Smiths:

You had a great day. Thank God and pray for more like it. They are too few and far between.

Sir you are blessed with a Daughter that enjoys spending time with you, and sharing your passion.

Bob, I go agree with Gary that is super. Also thanks for posting the pictures of you and your daughter and your very nice "elsies". Merry Christmas and good shooting.

Thanks Travis, Gary and David,

It's a lot of fun to pass on the passion for these great guns, all the history and most importantly to share them with family and friends.

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to All!
Bob
