Hammer guns are my favorite. The first shotgun I bought was very old 16ga breech loader that was converted from a 12ga percussion. Killed a lot of game with it.

I have a pair of Husqvarna 51's that I shoot now.


A German Drilling that I restored, the stock was shattered at the head


I have a Berretta Tri-Centennial MZL that has been a hunting shotgun for me, ducks and grouse.

I just added a WW Forsythe 10ga upland shotgun (7 lb 14oz/ 28" barrels) pictured alongside my Hungarian bird gun.


I really like the Bernardelli Hammer shotgun, I looked seriously at one in the 1960's but with a limited gun fund had to make other choices.

Never could understand safeties on a hammer shotgun, part of the thrill of shooting a hammer gun is cocking the hammers at the flush.

I like to hunt and shoot with hammer guns also . I have 2 12's, 2 16's, and 2 20's. I never seem to run into any Husky's, but they are solid well built guns.
