Nice photos !! Happy dogs make the day seem brighter!! Thanks for the photos.. Thanks WCH. It was interesting to me that out of this tiny sample of bird hunters, three of us are shooting Vincenzio Bernardelli S/S's. V. Bernardelli made arms for over 250 years in Gardone, Italy but, sadly went out of business 15-20 years ago. There are other mfgs with the name "Bernardelli" still active, but the V.Bernies were the "pick of the litter" in terms of quality. They are not well known, and somewhat under appreciated. I have been looking for a V. Bernie S/S 16 Ga for a long time. So if anyone knows of one, pls give me a heads up. NB

A Beretta 686 Sporting in a 20 gauge with 29 1/2 barrels with a custom finished and fitted stock is my go to gun. An older pre-war 16 gauge Ithaca 37 is backup gun on rainy days. After that there are too many others vying to a day afield. Here's the B-gun:

I'm going to take out my Model 21 - it hasn't been afield in a few years.

I usually use a Browning Citori white lightning 16 ga 28" I like its versatility on mixed bag hunts like I normally do around home. That's also why I hunt with a versatile dog. I also sometimes use my Merkel 16.

I don't believe that is you. That guy looks like a tourist. All the homies wear blue jeans.

I use a 1950's vintage Marlin Model 90 O/U in 16ga that was my first shotgun. I love the shotgun and can hunt with it all day long. Ammo sometimes hard to get but lately Cabelas has been stocking 16 ga pheasant loads down by me in Indy.

I also sometimes use my Merkel 16. Rates a BIG Two-Cool! We hunted for many years with griffons and took many mixed bags. I was pleased to see a couple of Wilson's snipe in one bag and your sweet 16ga shotguns. My mom's neighbor has the twin to your dog.
