The first gun my dad gave me was a SXS and that's all I've ever shot except one or two single barrel trap guns. When I got back into shooting clays 10 or 12 years ago it was with a H&K SxS. Got a friend interested when he tried my first Parker hammergun with lots of DAH. Said he couldn't lift his head because it was already up [ so he could look down the rib ]. Sold that H&K shortly there after and only shot the old SxS's with around 3" DAH. I then took over the shotgun venue at our club and being tired of doing registered sporting clays shoots he and I decided to put on SxS Shoots. There's probably 30% of the shotgunners now shooting SxSs at my club. Yes when we go to other clubs our guns get attention, especially the ones with damascus barrels.
