Todd, that's a great gun to celebrate the Queen. Here's my little H&H that started life as a 28 bore in the late 1870s and had a set of .410 barrels added more recently. (BTW, those original chokes on your gun would have suited me just fine...and I've killed a tree or three in my time, but I can't recall ever doing so AND killing a bird.  )
