Recently I acquired 2 (two) additional 16 gauge shotguns, probably two more than any person really needs at any given time. But I traded a 12 gauge Model 870 for an old 16 Ithaca Model 37 with a LymanChoke on it. Just previous to that my Sauer 16 SXS arrived from Kirby Hoyt of Vintage Doubles. I am as pleased as punch to add these two to my 16 Model 12, even though I can only shoot one at a time!  This next hunting season is too far away! GWW |

Its nice to see that I am not the only one. I picked up a Winchester 24 a couple of months ago and I am waiting for a Ithaca 37 to be shipped in as well .
At least we can take more that one gun with us when we go for birds. |

This disease is obviously contagious, and I hope a cure is not found anytime soon! After already having one 16 that is my primary upland gun (Browning Lightning Feather), I picked up an older Ithaca 37R in 16 gauge, and was so impressed with how that old pump handled, that I bought another one! Kinda reminds me of that old commercial of the guy who liked a product so well that he bought the company.
I had to get a part time job just to pay for my addiction !!! |

Invite for you is the same as eneder????? You make it up to the N. East and a Hunt awaits you(canned maybe , but fun no matter.

BTW, don't tell PGG about the sauer, he'll use that as proof of something.  |

I got home about 3 weeks ago! Thus the buying spree, spending some combat pay. I'll have to modify my signature now, but I am most happy to do it!  |

| My home is in western South Dakota in the Black Hills; I hunt mostly with a pal who lives in the north-central part of the state. Lots of pheasants! Thanks for the good thoughts. GWW |
