Default Friday Snow Day

East Tennessee doesn’t get a lot of snow but we are today. So I pulled out a favorite and snapped a couple of “Friday Photos”.

Very nice! Care to share any details?

Garry it’s a DHE 20 32” in pretty decent original condition. Choked F/F, skeleton, straight stock and double triggers. For what it is it’s a pretty nimble, fast handling little 20. I think it might want to be a bird gun deep down inside.

Well, it ain’t a Tennessee mountain grouse gun. I’ll bet it would swing well on dove…and take late season edge of prairie, wild flushing Bobs. Curious what it weighs.

That is an incredible gun.

The East TN Cartel has some nice long legged beauties! Randy drooled on his keyboard.

It's drool worthy for sure.
