A Savage 23A 22LR. Used for almost anything shootable in the Texas Panhandle as well as killing hogs for slaughter and putting down sick animals. My dad learned to shoot very quickly and accurately. The chamber became ringed with the use of 22shorts. I was given my own M23 for my birthday in about 1962; Dad payed about $12 for it. Used, but in excellent condition. I never could shoot it as well as my dad could; he had been an top turret gunner in the Army Air Corp. in WWII.
