It is spring cleaning time in the basement.

As I was inspecting and doing a final cleanup on guns that were not properly put back in the locker over the winter, I laid these on the floor. I guess all could be considered varmint guns.

If I were a varmint, the scariest would be the one at the bottom. Big barrel -- same size outside dimension as the double-barrel 12-gauge at the top of the picture. That thing could shoot your eye out! It is a genuine Daisy Red Ryder.

The one below the double-barrel always looks scary too -- it is a .177 pellet gun that cost me about $25 with the 4x scope from the old Cummins Tool company. At 30 yards it is darn accurate, and will go right through a squirrel.
