Who duck hunts with a "classic".....

I've seen a lot of new shotguns out on the marsh, most with fancy camo paint jobs, matte finishes, and synthetic stocks.

Does anyone here still hunt with a 'classic' shotgun? For practical purposes, lets call a "classic" shotgun one which was popular, but isn't manufactured any more.....guns such as the Browning A5, Ithaca M37, Remington 11-48, or Winchester Model 12.
Heck, I'll even go as far as adding shotguns that weren't all the popular, but aren't manufactured anymore, such as the Ithaca M51, Winchester Super X & 1400, Stevens 67 or 5100, High standard semiauto or pump, ect.

I have a few: A Remington model 11 (looks like the A5) and an Ithaca M37 (both in 16 gauge)....the get out to the marsh a few times a year with some bismuth handloads (I have a Remington 870 Express that is my main waterfowling gun).

.....and while it's not really a 'classic' by my definition, I have an older Mossberg 500 pump that was my first gun, and I plan on taking it out a time or two before the season closes.

So how bout it....what 'classics' are still getting used in the duck marsh?
