I have an old Western Auto bolt action .22 in my gun safe.

Any decent kid had a trusty Barlow knife, a BB gun and a fishpole purchased at Western Auto LOL

I have a Revelation 20 gauge which I think was Western Auto’s store brand.

I am pretty sure it was made by Stevens. It is a little better than average as it has an ejector instead of just an extractor.

Someone gave me 20 boxes of AA skeet loads and I no longer had a 20 gauge so I bought this one at a pawn shop for $50. It was rusty but a coat of oil removed all of it and it has shown no signs of rusting again.

The little thing fits me unusually well and despite it being a full choke, it is easy to hit with.

One odd thing about it, is it was proof tested which most American made arms are not., at least I thought they weren’t. I think they are just shot to make sure they work.
