Edit, I must have took them off.. Chess and I carried the same rifle through highschool, I used mine mainly cutting off dog drives with Boykin Hunt Club.

You talking about some of these bad boys!!!IMG_6297.jpg
Those Remington semi auto rifles with the see thru rings were the big thing back in the day. Not so much love for them from the new guys today, but they don't know what they don't know.
My first deer rifle was a borrowed 742 Woodmaster in 30-06 which led me to buy a 7400 in 30-06. Killed a pile of deer with those guns. A perfect rifle to have when walking up on a group of hogs, you can empty a mag pretty quick with one of those guns.
I finally moved up to a Remington 700 and remounted the scope on the 7400 with lower rings and gave it to my son a few years back.
Hoping to get one of my kids to take one down with this old Woodmaster. That would be 4 generations of kills with it
My 700 30-06 passed down from dad still has the see through rings

Another throwback to the good old days. Not too many folks use a compass anymore opting for smart phones instead.
First thing when I get dressed in the morning, I hang a compass around my neck and drop it in behind my T shirt. 40+ years later, I still the use it every time I head into the woods. The moment I pull up to my hunting spot I'll take a back bearing to the road before I pull my rifle out of the case.

Climbed many of trees with my Baker when they first came out with my Marlin 30-30 and peep thru sites.
I also watched a friend of mine climbing with a Baker using the hands on attachment. It was like a chin up bar that extended away from the tree. He was climbing on a damp morning and fell backwards breaking his neck. He spent many months in traction and a halo brace.
Never used my Baker again.

That pump rifle and 130 grain Silvertips ( the original version) fed my family for a lot of winters…

They were absolutely the rage back in the 80s but I never cared for them. I always thought they were a rifle made out of a shotgun. I longed for a Browning BAR for years and finally got the money to go buy one, only to change my mind a couple days before heading to Simpson's and ended up with a stainless A-Bolt.
My uncle's hand climber broke causing him to fall out backwards but luckily he hadn't gotten far off the ground. Getting up from the seated position on those things was scary as crap and then the climb down was worse than the climb up. Can't remember the name but those green aluminum two piece climbers came along and the world was a much better place.
