The 12 gauge 40 incher is intriguing. I would have to see and handle them in person to see which one fit the best. I would not be buying them to display or keep in the safe

The 10 gauge intrests me since it’s an EH/GH and the longest 10 EH/GH I have is 34” . As does the 8 gauge , but let’s be realistic I buy anymore to shoot and how much am I going to shoot 34” guns much less 40” . Well I do shoot the 34” 8 a bit , but generally 32” is plenty for me .

I was surprised at how well it handled. I could see pass shooting ducks with it.

Mike,
Most people would say I’ve been lead astray a good while back, I think Randy offered to help to curb my affliction

Shopping for Parkers means you are moving away from the dark side.

I have a sneaking suspicion there might be one or two nice ones from the dark side at this auction

Craig, just say NO to Eurotrash and friends don't let friends shoot Foxes!!

One must stay focused. No different than shooting.
