If it takes a shotgun, I hunt everything with a side by side.

I used my 16 sxs last season.
the thing about baiting is, even a rookie hunter could have a 170 bird season if they bait holes

Yup, Huglu CZ Bobwhite 12ga. I favor 2 triggers.

Nope, I like my 870 and M2000.... something about 3 shells  I do have a SxS, but it twice as old as I am, it was my GGF gun
I'd ask him if he's pregnant. He missed a s__tload of periods. I'll take "things that look like a uterus" for $200 Alex.

My next project for myself is a Westley Richards style droploc in 20 or 28 gauge.

If it takes a shotgun, I hunt everything with a side by side. This is true....

I've always yearned for a SxS. Bought the Academy imported Yildiz in 20ga earlier this year and had it adjusted for my LOP. Seemed like the type of really light upland gun that I have always "needed".
Shooting some Hevishot Pheasant 6s this weekend for the opener. I almost broke it out in west Texas this weekend for the HPMMU opener, but I wasn't fully prepared for 26 degrees each morning so I stuck with old faithful lest I hold onto bare metal in cold temps.
Thought for the day: Ducks were almost hunted to extinction long before camo was invented.
