Oh my! What a collection of guns. In my mind they are all 30" + guns, after all you can't see the end of the barrels to tell how long they are. Don't even comment, just let me dream.

And all beavertails too. Probably all Skeet guns.

One of those straight grip guns looks like a GH.

To me it looks like #2, 7 and 8 have splinter forends and double triggers. Regardless IMHO the 28 is the ultimate birdgun.

Right, and those three have pistol grips too.

... Randy - they’re woodcock guns with the occasional grouse to flavor the bag.

...sorry Randy.

But can you imagine swinging a svelte little 28 with a straight grip, beavertail and 32” barrels on dove speedsters jinking along at 50 mph?
