Fun in the sun:
I gave the Ithaca "Crass" and a Parker VH a bit of a workout yesterday, taking advantage of a 72 degree December day here in Colorado. I shot a mixture of Black Powder and some B&P 2-1/2" low pressure Smokeless through the Damascus Ithaca. The Parker digested the Remington STS "Premier" green ones. I only fired around 30 times, crushed many clays and a few were barely broken, however my son said none were missed.
The factory Remington "Premier" smoked more clays than the Black Powder shells, probably due to having the advantage of a shot cup. It was a nice outing about an hour or so from home.
On the way home I stopped to see my local gunsmith and have an unsightly vintage Ithaca "glow worm" front sight removed from the 1902 "Monte Carlo" VH. I chose a very small gold skirted bead, five minutes and $4 later we were on our way.
