Thanks for noticing. I hunted the Limpopo region of South Africa. It's a Burchell's Zebra. We looked at a lot of zebra before finding a good stallion. I was lucky that he didn't have a lot of shadow stripes. This is a better look.

Thanks, Buzz. She's fun.

BTW, how would you have worded the post to be less "verbose"? Maybe this is a learning opportunity for me.

Rob

I will definitely keep at it, as long as I can put one foot in front of the other. What a wonderful gun you allowed me to enjoy. It is just a prize.

I hope that, when I begin to disseminate my double guns, I am able to place them in the hands of those who will appreciate and use them as much as I do yours. Blessings on you, my brother.

Greg, that's a nice pic of the countryside where you hunt. I had wondered what it looked like, having never been to N. Dakota. How long before frost kills all the green grass? And, do you hunt public lands, or private?

Thanks SH for the kind words! Well, as far as frost goes, just depends. Two years ago we had 17" of snow on Pheasant Opener (Oct 12 or so) a few years back in was 80 above on Deer Opener (Nov 7). Really no time table. Whenever we get a hard freeze. The last couple years we had droughts, grass was always brown. This year was good for rain.

As far as hunting goes, I mainly hunt private land. We live in a small farm town (about 40 people in town, doesn't include farmers/ranchers). Everyone knows everyone. The town has a school, bar and Church. I love it here!!!! Next move I'll ever make is to the Church and then the graveyard.

Thanks again!

Best Regards!

Greg

Stan, your posts are fine- no "verbosity" that I can detect, and besides, it is perfectly fine to extol the fine shooting qualities of that dual gauge DHE- rare I should think with 32" F&F choking. Since the frame accepts both 16 and 20 gauge barrel sets, is it a No. 1 frame, or a No. O size? RWTF

It is a #1 frame gun, Francis.
