[skeet]

I shoot a M-12 skeet in 12 ga...as well as an old Rem 31 C skeet.. in 20 I have a Win M-12 pigeon skeet in 28 I have 2 also..a M-12 28 vent rib mod choke gun as well as a Browning remake of the M-12..and a Rem 11-48 28 ga skeet and in 410 I have a pair of M-42's one skeet and the other a solid rib mod choke one and a gun I have never shot a Rem 11-48 410 skeet. I bought it from the original owner and it has had only 7 shells shot through it. He got it from a Remington Rep and I even have a custom made(in the Rem factory) magazine cap weight for it. I also have a set of D grade M-1100's made in 1969. Pretty guns for certain. I used to shoot skeet competetively with them years ago. Shot many 100 straights with them...but only one with the 410. Hard gun(410) to shoot well. The best I could ever do with the m-42 skeet gun in registered shooting was a 98. Really hard to shoot well at clay targets. OK in the field though. I also have a couple or 4 M-12 trap guns. One I bought last year at an auction is a solid rib trap, another trap that was made in 56 and a first year vent rib(1919) Trap gun. I also have a NID Ithaca 28 ga 4E double of which they only made either 5 or 7, not sure, but I shoot it so infrequently . It is worth in the 20-25000 dollar range and I surely don't want to break it....but it really does shoot well. The old ones still shoot well...even if they aren't all high tech and pretty as the new ones...and a lot more fun than the new stuff. I shot a club shoot a couple of years ago for fun..and shot a 99 at doubles with my old M-12. Won the darn thing and really PO'd a couple of shooters. Just goes to show that the ol' ones still work.
