I could see me now... "Hey honey, come look in this old box that my dad gave me twenty years ago when he moved to Las Vegas. What's this? a M79 blooper? Wonder how he came into that? OH!! lets see what else! oh my... a 1928 Thompson A1, and LOOK 6 drum magazines!! Maybe I need to check the other boxes in the garage" And then the Mrs... " Oh Michael... You and your guns. I don't believe you got two more!" harummmph! ROFLMBO! Ron,... I wish you all the best with your treasure find. I'm "funnin' ya" with the above. I just don't get anyone in my world leaving me stuff like this. You Da MAN! da

Funny you mentioned a Thompson! I actually got to shoot a real Thompson with 50 rd drum and 25 rd clips, plus a burp gun! This was back in 1958, and dad brought them to our lake house with a trunk load of 45 ammo, in our 57 Olds. All 3 boys got to shoot both, and I'll always remember that!
Both weapons are still around, currently residing at the OCPD gun range, in their safe.

Is the 38 s&w worth shooting? As old as it is, do I need to find old style ammo or will new ammo work ok in it?

My Dad didn't own any guns, but I have my granfather's Mossberg .22 mag.
Any gun handed down should be a keeper, IMO Jim
