James looks like you had an awesome hunt with an awesome gun !!!
I have the same gun that weighs exactly 6 lbs and is probably my favorite bird gun. |

It's one of my favorite guns, a 26" tournament grade dt, ae, sf, 6" 7' made in 1936 I think.

wow, in this game of "Grouse gun show and tell", I declare you the winner.
3 birds on opening day, my hat is off to you. I used to be able to shoot my 3 bird limit in ohio on opening day, before the demise of the southern Appalachian grouse population.

That's off to a great start in New York! Congrats, good shooting and nice gun too. I'm going out tomorrow in the Newcomb area of the Adirondacks for the day to see if I can find any. I'll be taking a Browning Lightning and Parker GH with me. Both are 20 ga, 26" barrels choked IC and Mod. Not sure which one I'll use...probably the Parker.

One of my favorite grouse guns, a real beater VHE 20 that someone cut the barrels from 28 to 26.5"(why?). The ejectors still work well, someday may have to clean the old girl up.
RIP, Shiner

Mr Day, Thanks for the report. Any news is good news. It will be a few more sleeps before I head that direction, but the fire that moves me is building and it requires little kindling. Hope the weather settles some for you and that the rain has cleared a few shooting lanes.
