My sons and their #4 rolling blocks

Both my sons came to visit today. Its been many years since we went shooting together. Over 30 years ago when they were small boys, I gave each of them a #4 rolling block. Here they are today shooting their little rollers. As a father, it just doesn't get any better than this  Smiley

Love those little No.4s ... especially the nearest one with the tang sight. Are you looking to adopt?

Lol - I'm too old to start over  Grin

Both rifles have tang sights. Here is a short video I made while we were out there.

Now that your sons are full grown men those #4s look pretty dainty in their hands.  Sounds like a good excuse to build a couple of BPCS Rollers on #1 actions for them.  Then you’d have another excuse to all get together again and try them out.  You are truly blessed to have two sons who you can enjoy being with and sharing range time.

I've thought about that!  It was a great joy to go shooting with them. Its a rare opportunity to have them together.
