1st hunt this year
« on: October 16, 2024, 08:00:43 AM »
Decided to do much of my hunting this year with this fine, old double.  It turned 100 years young.

For a 100 yrs, that looks really good. I'm already looking a lot more battered. Is it a 12 gauge? What do you intend to fell. What make is that gun (I couldn't tell from the photo). Wish you good hunter's luck.

Great shotgun! My first shotgun, or at least the first one I chose when I bought my own, was a 12 Ga Parker hammer double. The quality was second to none. Very nice piece.
