Default Trap guns and geese ??

Wildfowl magazine always prints an old photo of waterfowling history,

the current issue just came and has a picture of a couple goose hunters with their bag

the older guy on the right has a hump back auto- but

the young guy on the left has been hunting with a Parker trap gun

I expect it would reach out, but you would need a clean kill without a follow up

Rick, was the "young guy on the left" shooting a SBT or a Double Trap??

Single. A double would make more sense

With a Parker SBT, it only takes one shot.

But what if you want more than 1 goose?
