I have Model 12s from both grandfathers. One a Black Diamond trap, and the other a Pigeon Grade 16, along with their solid rib field guns mostly silver like they tend to be as they saw lots of use. I try and take one on the Thanksgiving morning pheasant hunt. There were no 870s in those homes, but I would love to have a Remington 17 in 20ga just like Researcher’s above.
One day I will find another Win. Mdl 37, .410 single barrel just like the one I had as child and shot many a limit of rabbits in front of our beagles. Just because you have a early Mdl 42 doesn’t mean one doesn’t need a Steel built single barrel.
I can run a pump gun, I know I can break more targets with the Belgian Browning O/U, but the Parker guns make the memories now.
