With That said: I own or have owned examples of all those pet peeve type guns. I guess it's just part of the my doublegun addiction.
My preference is 16-20 gauge guns with double triggers, extractors, splinter forearm, around 6.5lbs and those just right sized 28" barrels.

Paul, we should not sit next to each other at an auction. The auctioneer would have trouble determining who had the bid.  (BTW, you have good taste in guns  )
