And finally, a couple more of my favorite, the 12. Note barrel markings and chokes. This is a very versatile gun. Lengths are 28" and 26" as you might guess. The serial number does NOT contain SSS. It is a serious duck killer, In fact I made a tripple on gadwall with it once! One with the first barrel and two with the second as thery came in to my decoys.

I can't believe you found a 12ga set with 26" Q1/Q2 barrels and 28" IC/M. I didn't know such a combo even existed! It is perfect! I want one too!

I don't think there are too many sets like that out there Marvin. Especially with BOTH barrels having 3" chambers.

The "Just In Case" Repro...a 28-ga. DHE, 26" IC/M. I purchased this, my only single-triggered double, because I live in snow country. Because I live in snow country I own a snowblower. If you own a snowblower you undoubtedly are aware that accidents can happen when operating them. Every winter many, perhaps hundreds, lose their fingers when they stick their hand in the snowblower's chute to clear away clogged snow. Knowing this and being the super cautious person that I am, I have developed a technique where I tuck my trigger finger and wrap my thumb over it when sticking my hand in the chute to clear it out, so just in case I lose some fingers I will still have my one trigger finger--hence the gun's name..."Just In Case".

Besides the striking head-to-toe fiddleback, the cool thing about this stock is that it has two red grains that run longitudinally down both sides of it.

Beautiful wood Greg.

As an aside, the owner's manual that comes with every snowblower specifically states that the operator must shut off the machine before attempting to clear the chute and other areas of accumulated snow.

I guess I don't have a future of becoming a comedian, eh?

Eventually, all of them Eric. He likes to shoot the 28 ga for sporting clays and he did well at trap with the 12 ga recently. I shoot the leftovers.
...and, those 20's kill ducks too! This is mine before the face lift.
