I love my old single shots. I use the .410s to keep the vermin at bay in my garden and orchard. My old H&R Topper, a 36 inch 12, bought for me while in grad school by my girlfriend-now-wife, was my turkey gun for many years. They will all be part of my estate sale at my demise, as I will not part with them.
