Bill Headrick is my favorite gun photographer. Now that you say it, he did some good articles as well.

I need to get the second edition of Best Guns if it has the Superposed in it. We have one Superposed in our collection.

It is in it under the belgium section.

Mills Morrison, in my opinion, you need to include the Superposed in your collecting interest, as I have. My interest is in very early guns and double trigger and double single trigger guns, which are quite interesting and scarce. I am trying to transfer my buying habits to others who may take over for me.

I have a Superposed, 3 barrel (20, 28 & 410) set. It is a nice gun.

Model 12, Ithaca 37, 870, Browning Auto 5 are all classics as well.

I have hunted from Mexico, to the Artic Circle, and California to Iowa with a Model 21.
Not in the same league as a Parker, but a great gun, none the less. An analogy would be the Chevrolet Corvette, as compared to the sports cars of the world.
Not everyone's cup of tea, but just un-deniable in its own way.

I would include the M-21 to classic American guns for sure! They were great duck guns if you don't mind two shooter. Hi quality steel and over built, most are heavy for their gauge and tend to be clubby in the upland setting but not in the duck blind. I now mostly hunt grouse and like light guns for the most part. I own only one model 21, I searched for a long time to find it. Its a early double trigger field grade 16ga PG-SF 26" IC/M extractors at 6lbs-8oz!!! Most of the 16-s are 7 pounds plus. My 21 is not the upland gun my VH-16 that comes in at 6lbs-1oz is, but still very nice American made SXS! My model 21 will get some time in the grouse woods this fall...(-: SXS ohio

That's the best analogy that could be used for the 21. Well said!
