I have a 2 frame 16ga. At first I found myself thinking the gun was too heavy for anything more than sitting on a dove stool, but then I actually shot a few pen raised birds with her and now Im not sure I have a better gun for sitting on a dove stool. It has definitely raised my interest in larger frame guns. Id now also like to find a 3 frame or larger gun.

The #3 frame guns aren't that massive really, they're just pleasantly heavy and feel good in the hand. The Spanish 10 gauge guns are huge, more like a #6 frame 8 gauge.

Richard, that's the gun I loaned you to shoot for sure. It's a canvasback killer!

I believe the Puglisi gun was a VH grade, he wanted some lunatic price for it like $40k. I never heard of anybody buying it, maybe they've still got it floating around.
