Is one of those the little 11-F 20 gauge you laid in my hands at Koneski’s a year or two ago ? That sure was a nice feeling little gun ! I’ve always thought 11-F’s in all three gauges and a 32-F would make a nice display .

I bought a nice new B-SS sidelock 12 gauge back in the mid 80’s I believe . 12 gauge 26” IC/M checkered butt , bought it for grouse . But shot it more at skeet than anything . At the time I was in my early 20’s and thought heavy trap/skeet loads were the ticket and that gun would wake you up a bit a...

I’d thought Buckingham was partial to I think they were called “Iverson calls” . The pictures I saw of them they had a bit of checkering on them .

For air travel nothing and I repeat nothing is better than an Americase (if you can find one) . For everything else I used to use LOM for shotguns and kinda stiff soft cases for rifles . Now I still use the same for rifles and Boyt take down for shotguns . Lighter anymore for me is better , LOM case...

Thanks Daryl for your two reports. Sounds like I didn't miss much by not going. Good luck on your upcoming pheasant trip. Good times with your regular crew. Please remind a certain gent to leave his 8 bore at home. Wouldn't want to see him get in trouble. :lol: frank You missed my smiling face 8) :...

I did the Vintagers on Thursday with Mr.’s Corona , Hoover and Bawell and enjoyed it . Only shot two of the fifty bird events and the twenty five bird 8 gauge event . That was plenty for a 3 1/2 hour drive up then a 3 1/2 hour drive home . Made for a kinda long day . But I was glad I went that was m...

Early antlerless deer season starts in VA in my county on 9/7/24 I suspect I may take a Parker shotgun loaded with a 1930’s vintage 0 buck in the right barrel and my handload in the left barrel and of course I’ll have my Mannlicher Schoenauer 6.5x54 MS along .

As I’m sure you well know the Vintage Cup is at Hopkins this year October 3-5 that’s like other years Thursday thru Saturday . Last year I got them to do an 8 gauge five stand event . So after doing 8 gauge thirty target events on the course at Hausemanns and Rock Mountain I’d been after them to do ...

8 gauge event Friday morning at the dove field !

Merry Christmas from those of us at the PGCA !

But the three long barreled Parker’s with premiums added were all over 40k all DHE’s 20-34” , 28-30” and 28-32” . I’d loved to have had the 28 32” but not at 47k .

Just a little update . Patton called me yesterday and we talked about half an hour . Anyway he sounded good , he said he didn’t feel 100% which is to be expected . And of course he gets tired fairly easily . He also told me he’ll start therapy here next week I believe he said . But he sounds in a pr...

And I hesitate to add the HE after having had one I’m Not as enamored as I once was . Different strokes for different folks. My 32", 3" chambered, 9 lb. 8 oz. Super is one of the last guns I own that I'd ever get rid of. It'll do anything I ask of it, even chase down late season, speedste...
