I have both safe queens and hammered field pieces, some get treated kinder than others, I love them all.
I've been on numerous tire burning trips - what else you suppose to burn out in the middle of a treeless desert?
after a few dove hunts i took my browning 1 of 500 American Mallard (Midas class Belgium) squirrel hunting and the high base six cracked the grip of exhibition grade burl walnut. After Browning repaired it it became a safe queen until I sold it.
