No dove season here but squirrel opens 9/1 with 16ga trojan f/xf. Grouse opener 10/1 will see Fox AE 16ga and Lefever H 16ga as usual.

I will be shooting doves and sporting clays for the next 5 days. I started out as a Parker guy and still love shooting them. It started at around age 12 with my Dad's Trojan and has gotten worse. But.... in these next few days a couple of Foxes and a Lefever or two will follow me around the field. Might even find room for a M12 20ga.

What no 28 gauge Model 12

I’ve got a well used and slightly abused Westley Richards boxlock 12 I’ve not used in a number of years and a WW Greener DH-40 12 that I’ve had since I was 15 and not fired in a good long while . But if I were to use a non Parker noise maker it would most likely be a circa 1965 Superposed 20 gauge skeet gun or a circa 1970 Superposed 28 gauge skeet gun .

Unless I can come up with a 28ga Superposed with 28 or 30" barrels.

I have a 28 gauge Superposed but it’s not for sale . The gentleman I got my VHE 20 from wants a Superposed 28 that’s round knob long tang preferably IC/M and I’ve been trying to find him one in his price range . But other than a smattering of skeet Guns and a few high grade guns there’s nothing to be found .

We’ve got a used recent manufacture Remington 1100 Sporting 28 gauge that feels really good in the hands . I’d add it to my accumulation but I’m a bit anal about loosing hulls and HATE picking them up off the ground .

The only way I would shoot an semi-auto or a pump would be when the hulls are on their last legs and ready to be pitched. Then I don't worry about picking them up. I also HATE picking them up off the ground unless some generous person who does'nt reload chucks a bunch of once fired hulls on the ground.

Whether it's ejector guns or of one of my vintage A-5s I long ago treated myself to the magnetic wand for shell p/u. We've got fire ants, cactus, and rattle snakes! Splurge gents, $35 WELL spent. Mine lives in the toolbox in my truck, always with me.

In the last 12-18 months we had a very nice semi recent manufacture Ithaca 28 gauge pump in excellent shape . Think it sold on GB for less than $800 I kinda wish I’d purchased it .
