Inventory changed:
BPS upland now has multiple barrels to swap as needed. (Model 12 is gone)
Stevens (1940)
Wish list items 1 & 2 are still wishes; wish list items 3 & up have been moved to the fantasy list after looking at retirement options... |

One 16 gauge. 1937 vintage Nitro Special. 26” CYL and MOD. After I lucked into about 4 boxes of the older Heavi-Metal ammunition, it became my specific non toxic shotgun. It gets me into the sweet 16 shoot, as well.

This number is subject to change, but, hasn’t for a few years.
Best,
Ted |
