Ed, my K-32 has soul too, as I mentioned in an earlier post. Daryl's comment about picking up a gun and saying to yourself, "I can shoot this gun." comes from a shooting man, not a gun collector. Daryl and I both have a few collector guns that don't give us that feeling of "I can shoot this gun". However, some others, not neccesarily collector guns, but some that are collector guns, are guns that we know we can shoot. Sorry to say it, but "soul" is usually identified by people who know which end the shot comes out. I find it hard to believe that someone who has not paid his dues in shotgun shooting, either at game or competition shooting can identify soul in shotguns.
