Ed,
This has been a great thread and it is great writing back and forth. I remember the first time I went down to Florida to meet my wife's parents. She warned me not to step on any ant mounds because they are fire ants and sting like heck. I was wondering what I had gotten myself into. Never thought about the impact those ants can have on birds.
Waterfowling is tough work wherever it is done. Putting out decoys and blinds takes time.
My first o/u was a Browning Citori and I really didn't care for it. The gun had issues and Browning's customer service had issues. Hence, I no longer buy Brownings. The first Beretta I bought was the 682 Super Trap Combo. I liked it so much that I bought a 686 o/u for skeet, sporting clays, and hunting, but 3 years later I bought a SBE for hunting and the 686 was used only for skeet and sporting clays by me, but it is still being used by my dad for hunting. In fact, it is the only gun he likes to hunt with and he has beaten the crap out of it.
