I'm not sure about it's value but when I was a kid we had one in the family and shot regular factory 32 shorts in it. I'd like to find another one. If you decide to get rid of it, let me know.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
