I shoot a Mossberg Silver Reserve O/U. It is a very inexpensive gun that shoots great. I never have the basic problems you have with any pump or semi. I also believe that I have become a better shot knowingI only have two shells. The single biggest reason I only hunt with an O/U is the ease of cleaning it!

Nice guns gentlemen. I had one as a kid but have not shot one for years now. I bought mine at an old Farmers Union store in SD. I paid 16.00 dollars for it back in 1956. It was a J.C Higgins. I don't recall who made them.

BigJ,

I'm surprised you take such a nice gun out in the woods!

I'm careful with it but hey, these guns are made to hunt. I mentioned in a thread here about bringingmy Diana grade Browning Superposed duck hunting, I still do hunt with that shotgun.

This little beauty is an absolute pure joy to shoot, it's super light, 20ga so it doesn't kick hard and points so naturally it's hard to leave it at home.

Thanks for the replies guys.

DM,

Great shotgun, there is just something about hunting with an old S/S.

Very niec pieces fellas! I have an old Fox S/S 20 gauge that I take out on a very regular basis shooting pheasants/doves. I also have a few pheasant hunters that really appreciate fine s/s shotguns as well. I sure get tired of all the semi-autos/pumps so its nice to see a nice piece of wood and 2 barrels :D

There are still some nice semi's and pumps,the old browning A5's are great and the the ever classic Mdl 12's are challeging to shoot skeet with.But classic lines of s/s's are cool!
