John, nice looking shorthair in your avatar. I used to go to McDonald to shoot with the late John Hensel(sp?). He had a sporting clays range set up at his house. He was a fine gent but always had more than his share of health problems. I'm approx. 45 min from McDonald.

K evin, sure wish I had seen that DHE 28, but it may have been out of my price range that day. I did have my DHE 16 with me that day, along with a VH 20, and Fox A grade 16 to show Russ and Henry.

Hello Harold ,I am getting in here a bit late ,but wanted to say ,We did have a good day at the show and it was a real pleasure to meet you and spend the day visiting and " trying " to look at the guns ! I regret we didn't get a look at the DHE 28 Kevin mentioned although 32" Barrels would be unique ,it would be a little long for in the Grouse Woods , my 30" Barrels are a bit too long for me ! Fellas ,that really is a nice Sterlingworth Harold picked up ,I am not 12 Ga. crazy either and prefer small bores but that gun felt very lively in hand and will make a great woods gun with some 2 1/2 RST's in it ! As for the weight loss ,I am glad I went to work on that ,I am too short for the 236 lbs. I was lugging around and feel much better at the 174 mark ,but over Christmas ,I added four lbs. back so again ,I am keeping an eye on it ! Best ; Russ

It also helps when driving an Austin Healey. Seats don't back far enough and the steering wheel only goes forward a few inches.
