Default Duck hunting with the Super Fox

My son and I went duck hunting on the Combahee River this past weekend. They told us their duck numbers were down, but we still got two and my Dad, who shot a short distance from us, got a Pintail. All in all a good time.

Actually, it was warmer than it had been (like 50's). Earlier this month, this field was completely frozen and all of the ducks left, according to our guide. They were just starting to come back.

Is that a Kautzky single trigger?

Nice silver crescent treatment on that ball grip - a la, a certain Parker we know of...

Mills, tell us about your SuperFox - looks like a custom gun with some unusual woodwork and checkering. What are the chokes & chambers, etc.?

It is a Kautzky single trigger.

The gun was a wreck and the prior owner had it restored with all new woodwork. 30" barrels with 3" chambers. Full and Full, but not sure of the exact measurements.

Dan Aubihl did the wood work

That is what I call raising a boy right. Bet, the young man uses yes sir and no sir when addressing adults.
