hunting with Remington auto loader

Hi everybody! I really like and enjoy this site-- lots of good info on the old guns. I have hunted in Northern New York for the past 36 years, both in and around the Adirondacks and Northern fringe area near the Canadian border and in the St Lawrence River valley. I started out with borrowed rifles or a shotgun with slugs—but for the past 26 years, I’ve used my old 35 Rem Auto loader from 1910. It has never let me down! Here are a few of the bears I’ve taken with it over the years. A few of them I needed to follow back into the thick brush—one was already expired…but one was very much alive—and not in a good mood! I’ve also taken a pile of deer with the ‘ol spring pole. If you’d like to read more, I’ve written a book about my extended family’s (cousins, uncles, etc) hunting and fishing adventures in this area over the years—it’s called “Tremblays’ Great Outdoor Adventures”. I wrote it in Honor of my late Father. If anyone would like a copy send me a PM. Thanks
