Say Tim- my Sandy and Dusky amigo(?) I am a big fan of both the lates Ernest Hemingway and Nash Buckingham-think I see the connection now- Ernest wrote while in Cuba at his Finca Viga estate one of his sons was a masterful shot with a .410 double-have to look that up- Nash B., on the other hand, wanted the .410 banned from all hunting-upland and waterfowling- as he felt on game birds it was a crippler-except in the hands of a very few expert shots-the shotgun was indeed petite- and the twin barrels and the rib gave a fair sight plane-but for a small gauge gun, I'll use the M12 20 ga. 28" mod. my Grandfather gave me in the 1950's for a birthday present-nothing smaller- I appreciate your input-RWTF
