Quail guns

[TxHuntermn]

I just picked up the 26” vh 20, 1909, shipped to South Carolina, choked cyl.and mod.
Dave Wolf performed his majicon the wrist and forend...there were 19 compound fractures in the wrist, and the forearm broken in half....no evidence of the trauma after Dave was through with it, Briley then removed 7 dents, and a dozen pellet dings, rejointed the gun, and it is ready for another 100 years...

working on that....have been busy with lots of family stuff...but it sure looks cute in the cabinet! The big mistake I made was not taking any "before" pics, because I honestly thought the gun was un reparable. it has really nice original high dimensions...and I think I will be able to shoot it well....definitely bringing it to shoot 20 hammerless at the southern.,

Harold; You need to send that Bird Gun back down here where it belongs. That's as good as it gets for Georgia thickets. I have hunted with many gun in my time following bird dogs. This brings to mind the worst I ever tried to shoot quail with a Browning Superposed Lightning. Just did not work for me. The best for me is a VH 12ga 26in.

That 28 gauge sure is a nice one!

Here's a couple of quail/pheasant guns. I stick to the ubiquitous 12 gauge. I mostly hunt pheasant in KS and consider quail as a bonus bird.

1. Dickson RA from 1898; weighs about 6 lbs 4oz. Of course you need a Gordon to go along on the hunt.


2. A 12 gauge lighter than a typical 20 gauge at 5 lbs 8 oz. It works fine on pheasant or quail. A 2" H&H.
