Sears, Roebuck, and Co. JC Higgins 102.25 (Stevens 520A) 12 gauge (pic)
Picture of my grandfather in 1961 with this particular shotgun. I now have it. Don't know if the '61 Pontiac Tempest is his. Browning patent (Model 520) with a semi-humpback and poly-choke.

Super nice photo of your granddad and fine proof of the legacy of your shotgun!!
I would guess the Pontiac was his. If not, only someone very close to him would allow those dead ducks on the hood of a new car! 😁

Looks like a guy I'd love hanging out with. Nice haul he's got there. There used to be a good amount of pheasants in east central WA.

Posted on another forum to identify the model and year vehicle and a member did a color correction of the photo.

Now I see pheasants that looked like ducks in the original photo! But......it just may be my eyes are the problem.

The grill is pretty much the only difference between the 61 and the 62
