I don't think anyone was "dismissed" here. Maybe the guy with the semi auto needs 5 three inch 1 1/4 oz loads of #5 shot to kill a Pheasant
 different strokes for different folks but we are all shooters and hunters. My point is/was newer isn't always better.

Interesting somebody buying a new semi-auto even new there was still paper shells made.

If those two guys could not together remove a plug from a semi automatic shotgun would you really want them to touch let alone hunt with a Parker? Think about what might happen to one of our beloved doubles! No, it is better that Huey, Dewey, and Louie stick to their bang-o-matics and leave the treasured heirlooms to those who will love and respect them.

My Dad has always been a "newer is better kind of guy", I think he's currently shooting a Benelli Nova or some such thing. But he's got a Model 21 Winchester that he breaks out once in awhile and he still appreciated all my old clunker guns and various vintage shooting tackle. Just cause somebody doesn't do it doesn't mean they don't like it, Dad is a prime example.

Seems like when I go hunting or clays shooting in the "real world", I'm the one everybody thinks is a little strange. You got to figure those of us shooting side x sides are out numbered at least a hundred to one. Our numbers seem quite large here, when in fact we are a very small minority. Of course, I always did like being different. John

Still not sure why they would remove the plug...Even more confused as to why it was taking so long. I removed the plug on my Remington 1100 when I was 13 just because I wanted to see how much I could take it apart and put it back. Unless it was a home defense gun I just don't know why you would remove the plug.
I grew up on pumps and semis, my father still swears by his browning A5s, rem 870, and winchester model 12 that he has had longer then I have been alive, but I have never understood buying a long gun let alone a shotgun with a synthetic stock. Just has never appealed to me.
