A 27.5" barreled BRNO sidelock 16 gauge with chokes opened to .005" and .015". It isn't pretty but I hit better with it than any other one I own.

I hunted all one fall in Ireland with a "black widow" BRNO just like that one. Borrowed it from one of my wife's many Donegal relatives. Probably totally illegal but the local Garda hunted with us, so apparently nobody cared. This was, however, in the mid-1960s before "The Troubles" started up again in Ulster.

A very useful and sturdy gun.

This rare little gem "fell into my lap" last week. She's a 16 ga. Husqvarna Model 44 built sometime before 1884.

Once her chokes are opened up I'll be carrying her in my grouse and woodcock coverts this fall.

Grayphase, that is one handsome Husky! I assume it is chambered 65mm/2 1/2"? What shells will you use?

Yes like all Husky's she has short chambers. I'll be reloading shells in the 6000 to 6500 psi range.

20ga DHE, 26" IC/M and the right number of triggers. Wanted a used one for a while, but most are NIB. This one has seen some use and will see more.

My latest acquisition: a Remington model 32 built in 1932 and restocked by Sherman Mays. 30" barrels choked full/full and a set of Briley 20ga full length fitted tubes.

Here's a nice old Ithaca M37 in 20ga. I've been looking for one with 26" VR bbl and factory IC choke for quite a while. When this one popped up here in Canada for less than $300/shipped, I jumped on it. Nothing special compared to most in this thread, but a nice find nonetheless.

Sherman did the stock on my K80 and on my Winchester 101. He does a great job.


I may not be smart but I can lift heavy objects

I have a shotgun so I have no need for a 30-06.....

EVERYBODY is pro-gun, some just don't know it. When an anti-gun person is in trouble, the first thing they do is call 911 and demand that they send somebody with a gun!
