Can I talk about a pump gun here? I'm getting to be too old to go out in the rain and snow, but back in my younger days, I used a Sears-Roebuck 12 ga pump I paid $99.00 for. The barrel is a 3" chamber, 28" modified
I painted it with some stuff called "Bowdull", and put a sling on it using a hose clamp around the magazine tube, and toted it for miles around the Pamunkey and Mattiponi rivers. Rain, snow, swamp, dust it didn't matter. It got cleaned once in a while, rather it needed it or not. It rode in the back of pickups, or strapped to the roll bar of my Jeep. It's still in my safe.
