We can all do with knowledgeable copy editors. I like much of what's in O'Connor's "Shotgun Book", but he said LC Smith didn't make any .410's. They were still making them while Jack was alive. More of a rifle guy.

I can remember when most of what was written about shotguns from a technical standpoint, in this country, carried a byline of either Zutz, McIntosh, or Brister. Zutz in particular was very prolific. Three different styles, all interesting and entertaining in their own ways.
