We are probably not being very kind, the kind of gun in his picture is useful in that has a similiar purpose as a cross over stock, only in this case the gun was built to accomodate a shooter who has one eye over the other.

Steve,

You seemed like such a good guy. Now I see that you have been deceiving us!!!

It is kind of like taking a beautiful woman to social occasion except that the woman is a "professional".

A professional? I think you should use a different analogy, I have seen him shoot

So I joined Green Mountain Shooting Preserve today and Star and I went on our first hunt there. I hope my choice of shotgun this time bails me out of the previous picture with my dreaded “O/U”. My 1929 VH 20 Ga on a 0 frame.

Oh and the dog looks beautiful as all setters do...

I bet most of us on here have a few guns that aren't classic side by sides.
