I have about six hammer guns, but my favorites are a modern Bernardelli Brescia 12ga/30"/straight grip and a circa 1880s Birmingham Lacey with 28"stub twist barrels. Use them both on doves with good success, as long as I'm not surrounded by yahoos with pumps and semis. Prefer to get out by myself and just enjoy the guns. Also have a Sarasqueta 20ga/32" that I can't hit squat with, and a Parker Damascus 12/30 that seems too nice to take out.
