Wanted: New Owner Looking for Reliability.

Looking for something entry-level, reliable, and on the affordable side. I'm interested in rifles, shotguns, bows, and crossbows. If you have a trusty firearm or bow that you’ve loved and maintained for years, and you’re looking to pass it down to someone who will treat it with that same respect, please let me know.

I've been hunting and shooting since I was 8 years old, but moving away from Newfoundland to Ontario meant leaving that part of my life—and my family's gear—behind. I finally managed to get my own PAL recently, but starting from absolute zero in today's economy makes buying retail pretty tough. I miss the old wood-and-steel era of guns I grew up on with my pops.

I’ve already set up a dedicated room to safely store and care for a collection that I hope to keep for a lifetime. More than anything, I want to use these pieces to introduce people in my community to the outdoors—folks who didn't get the chance to have a mentor growing up like I did. I'll be hunting Deer, Turkey, Ducks and Geese for this year. 

If you have a budget-friendly, reliable piece that deserves a good home where it'll actually get used and appreciated, I am more than willing to drive anywhere in Ontario to pick it up and handle the paperwork properly.
