I have owned a few Model 1148's Chambered in 28 Gauge over the years and really like them ! I Love how the barrel moves to cock them ! Very Unique !

Yes Sir, that one would do nicely! I believe it will top my allowance, but what a wonderful display of talent.

I shoot 5-stand every Wed. evening and for weeks now I have been toting two guns to the range. A Parker repro and a model 12 solid rib skeet gun choked IC. A round with each and I am not sure which is more fun.

Nothing wrong with single barrels, personally I'm pretty weak for old, original A-5s. Weak enough to own several, got a first year Sweet 16 that's a favorite early season duck buster.

I have a custom stocked Briley choked M-97 that is a deadly shooting blind gun.
Mostly protect pecan orchards from crows.
Also, a Damascus BBLd M-97, all original. I think Damascus was a 20 dollar option on a 15 dollar gun. Let that sink in for a minute.

My favorite is my Winchester '97 Black Diamond with matte top on the barrel. Straight stock with highly figured wood. Unsure if it's a Tournament grade or Trap grade. Looking under the buttplate to see if it was marked but didn't find anything. I shoot this gun in my Greater Lowell trap league. The look on the other teams faces walking off the line with a 25 shooting a 96 year old JMB classic is priceless .

Upland gun is my Remington Model 17 with solid rib choked IC on the barrel. Six pounds on the nose and wonderful to carry.

Sporting clays or a skeet is my Remington Model 11 20 gauge with 32" barrel. This gun makes me a better shooter.... The sighting plane is longer than my 34" barreled Parker.

I have always loved the Dam barrel '97, and would own one in 16 if I could find it.

I purchased a Winchester model 50 Deluxe Skeet WS1 12 gauge several years ago. it wasn’t until just a few weeks ago that I took it to the dairy for some Eurasian dove and pigeon action.
Whether it was the Weight that tamed the recoil or the design I am not sure but the recoil was not bad and it was a joy to shoot.

At the moment I’m hung up sort of on 16 gauge . And am after a couple 16 Model 12’s . I’m partial to Model 11’s and A-5’s but the Belgian A-5’s I prefer are the flat knob years meaning 66 or so to the mid 70’s . Have a circa 1954 870 I kinda like it was roughish when I got it and it’s still a little rough but I smoothed it out a bit . Bought a 16 gauge Winchester 37 a couple weeks ago , not sure why but it’s a kinda neat gun .
