Well fellas I couldn't take another minute without biting off on a new shootgun. I sold my Browning Gold Hunter and my Beretta Pintail to recover the money spent on my brand new Benelli SBE 2. It will arrive at my dealer on Wednesday. I am counting the minutes.

It should have brough near $700 with the collection of tubes. I let my cuz have it at $550. He is my real cuz not just a friend cuz. Sometimes kin can fall on hard times so I figured I would help him out. So I aint going to charge him but 5% interest

I've been thinking about selling mine but I'm having a hard time letting it go because of how well it fits.

I understand the fit. I am a hoarder of sorts. Dcoys, guns, boats, dogs ect. I am a slightly different hoarder as I get to a tripping point. When I do it usually involves a great big fire in the yard for burnable items, a trailer going to the sccrap yard and a sale pile. I get freaking ruthless when it comes time to get shed of items I don't use. I was standing in the closet near the gun safe and happened to notice a half a dozen guns in cases stacked against the gun safe. The safe is full. There are a half a dozen guns on or against my nightstand by my bed. There are guns all over that won't fit into the safe. WTF good are they to me other than I take comfort in knowing I own them. They are all gone. The heirlooms are going to the next generation tonight. I have A superposed Browning 12 ga, I have A5 12 gauges, you name it. They are all passed to me and now to the youngsters in my family. I would much rather know somebody is hunting with them than to know they would sit in the safe for the next 20 years, without even being looked at. We are keeping a 12 ga, a 28 ga a .22 cal pistol and a .22 cal rifle. One of each for both of us. Plus my AR and my 30-30. 10 guns and that is all. The rest of them are gone here at the end of today.

Well Hogman, Friday is going to have to wait until Wednesday because my shootgun doesn't get here until Wednesday. If it does not get here Wednesday then I might be $%^& uot of luck with no shootgun with which to shoot at the ducks. I have to drive 50 miles to my dealer to pick up and that has to be between 7 am and 4 pm in Houston traffic. I would rather you beat me with a knotted pine than to drive into that devil's septc tank some call Houston.

Grasshopper, you should wait till the new shotgun arrives before you go unarmed in duck season!!
There is time, and you must take it, to lay your hand on your dog's head as you walk past him lying on the floor or on his settle, time to talk with him, to remember with him, time to please him, time you can't buy back once he's gone" GBE

Love my SBE II. Took a little break in (didn't want to hold shells in the magazine). But once broke in it has been a workhorse. Love it.

Hey Wayne if you get really desperate, I got an old mossberg 835 ultra mag you can use, its a cannon. Let us know how you like the SBE II. I love mine, but don't have much to compare it too other than my mossberg cannon.

I have an old Steven's singe shot if you need to borrow one. I know you are great shot or I wouldn't offer, not many people can hunt ducks with 410, but I know you can do it.

I thank you fellas for the offer. I still have a mossberg 12 ga i used to use for dog training. It might be in the barn or, well who knows. It might have even been in the gun box on my 4 wheeler when I sold it. I never thought I would be saying I had too many guns.
