28 Gauges
 

Under the thread heading of "Other Fine Doubles" I thought I would show a couple of little Beretta 28 gauges. One is a 410E with the nicest little beavertail forend on it. And the other one is a pretty rare Beretta 28 gauge hammer gun with 2-1/2" chambers. They are both a lot of fun to shoot. And then there are the Brownings and the Merkel, but those 4 are O/Us.

Three years ago in Aroostic county, tight against Canada for most of a week with the Old Pats Society we had a 28 gauge Parker “Show & Tell” display.
What a wonderful bunch of grouse and woodcock hunters these guys are.

Zoli 28g with 29.5" barrels. Love this gun.

One of my proudest shots ever. VHE 28ga Skeet gun.
Gracie pointed this cock grouse in a tight spot under a cluster of snowberry bushes. I couldn’t walk it to flush it so I gave Gracie the “Okay get ‘im!”
The bird came out and up like a station 8 low-house. I don’t really remember what I did but I could feel the instinct in me and swung through Bum Belly Beak Bang!
I took its head completely off…

Dean I recall you posting that pic before of the table full of 28s! Would love to have the opportunity to examine that many Parker 28s at one time. Looks like 3 were 28" and the balance 26". And many with beavertails! I really like a small beavertail on a 28 gauge Parker.

You’re right on all accounts Reggie.

Dean, do you still have the 28 gauge VHE Skeet?
