Pigeon shooting is one of those games that gets in your blood and you bleed it. Things have changed since the first shoot I went to was well over 25 years ago. I was just out of college, money was funny and change was strange. I admired all the racks of guns, but it was the SxS's I loved the most.
At one shoot there was a guy Jimmy Pigeon he had an old Parker, vent rib, Miller trigger, beavertail forend. The stock was checker well and the action engraved, I really loved to look at that gun.
The 21's always it did it for me also, and that was the route I took. My main stay also has been a Browning BSS 30" F/F that gun just loved Winchester Super Pigeon loads.
Now there's a new bad boy in the quiver that I have waited a long time to take the plunge.
