At the back of the safe...

Twice a year I pull all guns from the safe and inspect them, wipe them down, and run a swab down the barrels. I really should sell some, but each has a story.
Here's a nice 20 bore J. Y. Potter that I've had for years. I have killed quail with it, but it carries and is choked like it should be a 'cock gun. I'm leaving it close to the safe door and plan to take it our for home covert woodcock this coming Fall. |
Oh my, that one is special. Details? barrel length, chokes, weight etc. It must be opened choked. I love my little G Forrester scottish hammer 20 bore with 30" barrels.

Oh that is wonderful

The gun has nice 28 inch barrels, re-proofed for 2 3/4" shells, weighs 5 lbs. 6 oz. and is choked .002/.008. The drop at heel is 2 inches, great for rising birds.
Doesn't it sound like a woodcock gun? Light enough to carry easily with one hand while the other fends off brush. Open chokes for that close shot with 3/4 oz. of small shot. |
Would think it would do a great job on those Missouri quail.

Not really the "Back of the safe" because it's a recent aquisition.
