AH Fox SPE 30" Skeet Gun

[Researcher]

I enjoy all kinds of shotguns. I even use those pieces of "farm machinery" Winchester Model 12/42s, Remington 31s & Remington Sportsman.

Those old humpbacks are kind of special down here . I remember hearing stories of the old guys using them back in the 70s for quail and squirrel. Especially the sweet 16s . My friends grandad had one and he always got a little teary eyed when he would talk about hunting with his in years gone by . His son also had a sweet 16 and a Remington model 11 .

I'm not a Model 21 fancier as such , but we had a 21 16 gauge skeet gun in the shop a few years ago and I tried my best to buy it off the customer . That gun felt really nice in my hands !

As to NID's I've got an NID Grade 2 10 Super that I like just fine and I have all intentions of getting an Ithaca NID 10 magnum (preferably Grade 2 to match the other).

As to O/U I see NOTHING wrong with the old Browning Belgium made Superposed guns and happen to have a good sized covey of them at the moment in all gauges .

I also see nothing wrong with Remington Model 32's , Krieghoff K-32's K-80's and K-20's .

And it goes without saying the Boss Woodward and Purdey O/U's were in a class all their own .

Nothing wrong with liking what a person likes just be easy about the way one words it .

I own and shoot most of the guns mentioned (except the Boss) and don't think any of them are ugly. Even my hardware store Foxes and Stevens guns have a certain charm to them. A Model 21 frame has more shape and character than a Churchill, a Holland and Holland boxlock, an 1894 Remington and many other guns of impeccable lineage.

Theres currently quite a few 1894s on the market , they have a very streamline look to them compared to other doubles . I wondered if thats something Remington intended or just a result of the design . I like the Parker clones that Stevens made which I find humorous in a way given that Parker was still making guns when Stevens made their look a likes .

There is currently a grade 2 NID 10 ga for sale but its not a magnum , there was a grade 2 or grade 3 NID magnum for sale a few days ago . I may end up with a NID field 10 magnum if I cant find a Parkers in that price range .
