Okay - first... My Dad was Mr. Romig so please call me Dean (but I do appreciate and return any and all acts of respect).

The hammer gun in my profile is my first 16 ga. 0-frame grade 0 or 1 (I'll have to find the research letter to be certain) with 28" Laminated barrels and lightening cuts on the water table. I have hunted with it a lot and shot both skeet and sporting clays with it. It fits me very well.

The Skeet-er didn't really knock 'em end over end but I think it was 'operator error'. I was using the mod & full barrels but I hadn't patterned it before I took it to the field. Oddly enough, I did very well with it at skeet shooting low gun with the skeet choked barrel set a couple of weeks ago.

Here are a couple of pics of the hammer 16

I never paid too much attention to the gun in your picture. I just though you were impersonsating Michael McIntosh

Dean when I saw the title to your thread thoughts of the old movie Harvey with Jimmy Stewart came to mind then I saw the pictures (quite beautiful) and realized you were OK :-D

Pete, that statement might be a little premature
