Must admit I've never owned or even shot a shotgun with a beavertail but I've never cared for the way they look, especially some of the really large ones. And some others...here's one I saw on a Trojan 20ga once...

I thought the same way as you , that is until I got the two Parker skeet guns and the VHE trap gun . I shoot all three very well at the risk of sounding like a braggart . I never thought they’d feel right in my hands but once I started crushing clay birds and flattening feathered birds I was okay with them .

My VHE Trap and VHE 16 skeet happen to be at the front door for this weekends activities . They actually are no wider than one of those slip on forend extension deals a lot of folks like .
