Frank called it in while we were there, if I remember what he said correctly the bird was banded in 2011 near Farmington NH.

I fully agree on the Miroku. I have C. Daley 500's in both 12 & 20 by Miroku and both are great guns, never any problems. They can still be had at very good prices and are almost identical to the BSS Brownings made by Miroku. I guess the " made in Japan " still bothers some folks.

Just about 7:30PM, I am going to bet that Frank is fast asleep for the night. I think we wore him out, then again none of us are the kids we used to be. What a great day!

After my earlier post, I went to lay down to take a nap. I was exhausted. Alarm was set or 3AM and on the road by 3:45 to meet Scott at his house at 5:00AM. Long day for anyone but all worth it. John: I logged on the USGS website via my smartphone and entered the information. I had no choice since Scott and Pete were both curious too! Here's what it said. INFORMATION FROM OUR FILES: Species: Canada Goose Date banded: 06/21/2011 Banding Location: FARMINGTON, STRAFFORD COUNTY, NEW HAMPSHIRE, USA Age: WAS TOO YOUNG TO FLY WHEN BANDED IN 2011 Sex: FEMALE Thanks again for reporting bird bands. |

My Lefever G 10ga has the thickest barrels walls from breech to muzzle of my short tens. They are extremely stout. I have no fear when shooting any nitro load I put through it.
