If I were stranded in the woods and could have only one gun it would be a 24. Not only could I shoot, I could also paddle water, drives stakes, and dig in rocky soil with it.

The snorkel idea isn't as far out as you might think. A duck hunter got caught on the mud flats near Anchorage years back. Feet stuck solid and the bore tide started coming in. Someone got to him with a boat but couldn't pull him out; a rescue helicopter was called. By the time the helo arrived, a Hughey I think, the hunter was totally submerged and breathing through the boat guys shotgun barrel. They tied onto him with the heli and tried to gently pull him out... no luck. They pulled him in half in the effort. Pretty gruesome I'm sure. He is only one of many who have gotten stuck in those flats on foot and been drowned by the bore tide.

Back in about 1977, I was offered a Model 21 Duck Gun for $500.00.
Once I saw it I passed, that sucker rattled! It didn't latch tightly and was off face to boot. It was the loosest one I ever held. |

I have owned and shot a Model 21 in both 16 and 20 gauge. But not for long
