Actually I've never heard turnip used in that way either I just couldn't resist an opportunity to give you a shot

For me the old classic is still good for folks above the Mason Dixon "Damnyankee" and yes in Virginia it's one word

I hate to bring this up, but turnips are not indigenous to North America.

Just sayin'

I love the G grade, surprised they are considered a production gun while the DH a custom. Besides what’s a bird gun without birds!

Agreed, I’m glad all three birds made it on the action! I would still consider the G to be the first in the series for custom guns, but that’s just me!
