Excellent thread!! Some good replies and well thought out to boot. First and foremost I am a shooter. Second, hunter. I have a nice bunch of Parkers and Lefevers now for shooting clays. A few Fox guns for upland birds. I had quite a few London guns, LCS, Ithaca, etc. Even a nice early Winchester M21 that I moved to upgrade my Parkers and Lefevers. If I don't score well with a gun it goes. Won't even bat an eye. Thank you Mr. Gun, have a nice day. That all comes down to fit and feel. Just personal preferences, nothing against the gun or maker. Heck, I have hardware store sub-gauge hammer guns that I can shoot lights out with!! I suppose sometimes it's a combination of the arrow and the Indian?? Nothing wrong with sexy high grade guns, but I'll take a shooter any day. That said, if anyone wants to donate a C, B or A grade, I'm more than happy to accept that rather charitable gift.
