Chantry, your tag line says it all! I have been addicted to hammer guns for around the last ten years. I am an addict and we probably need a "Hammer Gun" Help Group. First in the line is a nice Edward Whistler 12 ga. Damascus back action. Latest acquisition is a Greener 10 ga. Laminated bar action. I corrupted a good friend and he is also addicted now. Most of the time on the clay's course we are using English hammer guns. Last season hunts saw us fielding the hammer guns. I don't think there is a cure once you get bitten! Knees get weak and hearts go mushy and you start thinking what to sell to raise the necessary asking price to be a caretaker for another one. Well, it does make life interesting!
