Cool Guns and such

[QUOTE=Larryjk;331649]Skeet, The local doves are already headed to Colorado for Dan Morris to shoot their tails off. We had two mornings of 36-39 and one that I think it actually got to the lower 30s at my house. Game warden agrees that the local doves have already jumped ship.



Yep got pretty cool here a couple of mornings.. but the doves are still here. They are just cutting barley here now and the doves are chowing down on the spilled grain. If'n we're lucky we might get a shoot in here.

Larry I have a couple of K guns but the one that probably means the most to me is a nice little Ithaca NID in 28 ga grade 4 ejector gun. Nope don't shoot it very often they only made 5 of 'em and it is worth approx 25-30 K. It just means more to me because of the history. I know the guy that had it made back in 1930. Shot quail with him a few times. I was just a kid and he was an oldtimer.. but ohmigosh..could he shoot. Have had Perazzi's and they were alright..the Beretta was like shootin a fence post to me. But my all time favorite shootin in the field gun is the Model 12 followed closely by the good ol 1100....a much maligned gun. Usually when ya have an 1100 that won't work... it ain't the gun... it's the shooter. All time worst gun to shoot was an old Browning Auto 5..it worked but wow could it kick ya around. Not my idea of fun..but I shot it for 8 yrs about 30,000 rounds a year. Couldn't take the pounding..the gun I mean. Finally decided I couldn't either.. It was worse than owning the old XKE Jag I had..POS always needed workin on. both of 'em
