Default In a Nebraska Cornfield

A few friends meet in a Nebraska cornfield for a little get together and shooting. Mostly gun writers, gun experts and makers and a few assorted docs, lawyers, engineers and retired military. A few are Parker people, mostly not. A sporting clays course is laid out along the creek. Some shoot other types of guns.

Do you have any more pix of the Darne? Too bad you couldn't get any good-sized steaks.

The Darne is a Charlin. no more photos. There was a Manufrance Ideal there that I should have taken a photo of. What an interesting gun.

The hammer underlever by the trigger guard was an A. Smith 16ga Damascus. A fabulous little gun.

The gun in the first two photos is still in the white and was made in Kansas to give you an idea of the craftsmanship here. Here is another photo of the gun firing ball ammunition. Please, no questions about chamber length, low or high brass shells or how to measure choke.

The steaks are just from yearlings and are on the small side but they were inexpensive local grown.
