One I am making some small adjustments to the chokes to make it my go to skeet gun. It comes up and fits me better than any gun I have. And the other is being restocked as the original was beyond repair. The world cries out for such: he is needed & needed badly- the man who can carry a message to Garcia

Perry M. Kissam Sidelock Joined: Dec 2001 Posts: 941 Likes: 55 Albuquerque, New Mexico	A nice looking "pair" RT!! But now, as this board is great for, I need a bit of education this morning. Will someone please explain to me the difference between a "live bird gun" and a "field gun." I realize this may be elementary to many here, but I have heard it and just never asked before and have no idea what the difference(s) is (are). Thanks in advance. Perry M.

Perry M. Kissam Sidelock Joined: Dec 2001 Posts: 941 Likes: 55 Albuquerque, New Mexico	Thanks Karl. After seeing you answer I remembered hearing about Pigeon guns and their characteristics. I might have eventually put two and two together.....but I doubt it!! This board never ceases to amaze me and provide me with a education on so many things that 61 years of shooting and owning shotguns never has!! Now let me jump to RedoTx: Can you post any differences in the weight, etc of your pair? Thanks. Perry M. Kissam NRA Patron Life Member
