I’d have to say ole Wayne was a fair hand at building guns. Sure did a good job with that one.
Sort of a trip back in time.

Don't know why, but as of late, I have got the hankering for a Merkel 141. Prolly in 6.5 x 57R or 7 x 57R.

Must be a thing out that way.
Around here the sport is to try fool them with calls, to get em away from a dozen hens and come to you. Within 40 yards all while they are looking for you. Hopefully you've been holding your shotgun up not moving a muscle for 30 minutes while they take their sweet time.
This is all while sitting in a nest of seed ticks.
Funny game laws we have in the South.

Try foolin them with a call and hit em with a rifle .. Then you have done something ... A shotgun is little more than murder.. And you think you have done something.. Anyone can hit a standing target at 60 yards with a shotgun.. You call that sport!!! Keep fooling yourself!!1
