Wow! Clays off the deck? I had read they were used either as a training mechanism for door/tail gunners to learn to "lead" their target...or also to snipe at gulls and other birds on board ships that might get caught up in rotors/engines.

I guess they kept it "light" on board any way they could...no better way to get rid of some stress than banging clays.

I found a Longrange with 32" barrels about 5years ago in a gunshop north of Seattle for $900 that was an ejector gun in great condition and passed it on to my buddy who is very fond of LC Smiths and he was thrilled. May of been a little benevolent on that one. 🤐
