Should have been a double...

Kurt, you have to get them lined up more carefully if you want a double. OH, you mean a two shot double! I can't stop thinking about my ten gauge one shot double at extreme range a couple of years ago.

Kurt, that's a candidate for Parker of the Month. I'm going out Oct 1st for Mr Bob White, I hope I have a picture to post.

Angel,
You can take some credit for that photo. Those barrels used to be yours. It is nice shooting a set of 30" tight choked barrels for waterfowl. The original open 28" just don't cut it.

Good luck with the Quail and the Brittany. I hope to see some great photographs.

Thanks again,
Kurt

Now that is one sweet hammergun.

Kurt, that is a great looking grade 3. Did the barrels fit right in or did they require professional fitting?

I had to file a hair off the hook and lot off the forend loop. The serial numbers are within a few hundred. The 30" barrels have a little larger diameter and the forearm doesn't sit down exactly as flush as it should. A second forearm that fits better would be ideal.
