So my Uncle stopped by today and dropped off a shotgun that my late grandfather left me, a Remington 1100 that's older than I am.  
Here she is!

Not only is it a nice shotgun to begin with, but its so much nicer knowing that it is being passed down through the family. Makes the gun even better.

I agree. The fact it was left to me by family makes it all the better. I got into shooting after he passed, but before he did, he told my uncle that if I ever showed interest, this was to be my gun.

Congrats on a fine gun! I have one that my dad gave me almost 30 years ago and it is still as special to me today as it was then.

Just like the one my father use to carry into the woods every fall before his stroke.  Great shotgun, and an even better story behind it.

Sounds good.  Offer to take drive down to the pawn shop, and then put whatever she got plus $50 on the table right there.

ETA: Is there any way you could buy it off them for a little more than what they would get if they pawned it?

Ah that's a shame. The fact it's a cool gun would make it awesome to keep. but anything being in a family that long makes it worth keeping to me.

The family thing is awesome. I have a safe full of expensive guns, but the one that I will never part with is a Remington 760 Carbine in .30-06. This was my Grandfather's, and the first gun that I ever fired. My Grandfather has been gone for over 30 years, and this recently found its way to me, Cherish that 1100!
