"The lines of an old gun have character that can't be approached by the automatic plumbing that passes for a gun today." -George Bird Evans (The Upland Shooting Life)
I agree, except when hunting in the rain, which I still enjoy. And then I take my Benelli Ultra Lite 28 ga shell shucker. I just can't bear to see a fine old double get soaked. My hands just aren't competent enough to properly clean and dry out an old wet double.
