One thing I do know he has good taste in dogs.
After the first shot the rest are just noise.

I have a little 5 lb. 15 oz 12ga Bernardelli Elios BLE IC&IM that seems to work on everything upland from woodcock to pheasant and sharptail out on the prairie. I shot a Browning Superposed Lightning 20ga for a number of years and an old hammer 16 many years ago. I shoot an ounce of shot for hunting in all three gauges so gauge means little to me and how the gun handles is everything.

No favorite upland gauge. No favorite upland gun. But, plenty of favorite s. 12 ga. 32" BE Fox 16 ga. 32" L C Smith
20 ga. 30" 687 SP II Sporting .410 28" Yildiz SRH
May God bless America and those who defend her.

16 gauge works well in my grouse and woodcock coverts. Four hammer guns whisper seductively to me when ever I open the gun safe but if I could have only one it would probably be this little no name Belgium gun.

It's a toss up between this 16 gauge William Evans and the restocked 12 gauge Parker Trojan. The Evans is much easier to carry but the Parker is deadly.

"One thing I do know he has good taste in dogs." +1 AWS all the way!!! I have been very happy with my 16ga Husky 310as for the past couple of years.

Last season my favorite was my Thomas Turner Lightweight 12 made over 125 years ago, Damascus barrels. Next season? Not there yet.

GLS, what is the purpose or reason for the cut-out in the stock, and what does the other side look like?

1911 16g new-fangled Armour steel OOE Smith; replaced now with a 29" 1906 damascus OE. I am of the opinion that a pre-1913 "farm implement" 16g Smith with 28-30" barrels is upland utility, grace and elegance defined.
