Nice solid gun, ideal for squirrels but heavy goose loads will give you nosebleeds.

| Just a update i have a few high end shotguns but the quality of this single shot Win 37 is amazing for a $12 depression gun the wood the bluing and metal work is stellar. The Starlings are taking a beating at the bird feeders this is a retro fun gun. Regards BigBlue. |
