I can't answer for a few more years either

Hi, I’m a septuagenarian. My name is George. And I bought another shotgun.

However, the USPS is here to help. My MO from IA sent to the seller in MA has not arrived yet. I sent it December 21, priority mail.

I suspect a good number of the Pony Express riders are either quarantining or are getting Build Back Better checks.

My present two primary shotguns are a Beretta 680 series 12 gauge frame with 20 gauge 30 inch barrels. The second is Remington 870 "left hand" 20 gauge which is a joy to carry. I had wanted a 870 lefty 20 gauge for years and finally found a unfired model about 8 years ago on "Trapshooters.com".

I've shot a few continental pheasant shoots where my ole' favorite Winchester Super-X model 1 as the preferred
scatter gun. While a heavy shotgun I carried one in the bird fields of Nebraska for 10 years, not many bird eluded the Super-X.

When feeling nostalgic I grab my Parker Bros 12 gauge #2 frame.....

I qualify…. And went past one per decade a good while ago.

My shotguns are mostly Remington 870 pumps. I also have two model 12s. Both 12 g. One Fox Sterlingworth 12, one Browning Crossover 12, one BPS 10 g.
My Rem. are 3 12 ga., 2 20s, and one 28. At 74 the old 870 field 12 ga is still my first pick. Second would be an 870 20 ga. I bought 2 of these just after 2000. First I got one for my first wife, Linda. But she was always forgetting her ammo, so I bought a second one for myself so we always had ammo. Later I picked up a 28 just because I liked it. Mostly used it for blue gr and sage gr.. I took it for roosters a couple times, but I have golden retrievers and shots tend to be longer than pointing breeds. So after Linda passed in 2006, I went back to my old 870 12.
I am considering picking up a 20 ga. o/u but haven't really put any effort into it.

too many to list.
