For Charlie and Milton -- I thought about you guys when I saw these monsters. The Purdey was my favorite.

I did not mention the duck decoys and original duck stamp art that I saw, did I? Spectacular!

Not sure on the punts guns but Im going to guess the other three are 4 bores especially that double.

Not to hijack your thread but here are some 4 bores and other waterfowling guns at around the 2 minute mark. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jW2UU3JdpGw

There was a nice 8 in there, too. It looked like a 20 gauge in comparison.
