Oh, wait. I didn't tell the best part of that turkey hunting story. Early in the morning, as I was getting ready to set up in a spot I had picked out the evening before, somehow I got a shell backwards in the receiver of my 1100 gun and could not get that damn shell out of the receiver. So, being a clever fellow, I screwed off the end cap and removed the forend. The guy and his kid were with me. The guy with no shells asked, "Hey, what was that just flew out of your gun?". Yep, the end cap and magazine spring flew out and were somewhere in the cedar breaks we were standing in. Spent the next 2 days hunting with a one shot shotgun!!!

Two weeks later, continuing to be a clever guy, when I got a replacement end cap and msgsxinr spring, I tied an orange string to each of them and stuffed them down into the barrel magazine waiting for the next time in the future 30 years that will happen again so I will find them.
