Nice. I remember wanting one of those after seeing some pictures of them many years ago in Petersen's Hunting. Good luck on the geese and turkeys..........

That's great. The 10, I thought was all but forgotten. I am glad to hear it still is in use.

You have that right and it is great to find someone who knows who Elmer was.. He had a lot of custom work done on his 10 to make it a great shooter.. They are an awesome ga..

Enjoy it. Those big 10 gauge doubles are a lot of fun. I traded a Beretta 10 gauge SxS to a friend a few years ago and he used it the next week to kill a nice turkey. He said the same thing. Terrific patterns and his bird went down hard. That gun came back to me recently when he passed away suddenly. I sure miss him and think of him every time I open the safe and see that big gun.


Chronographs, bore scopes and pattern boards have broke a lot of hearts.
