We got out this morning for a wee shot and these two old boys came along the top one is my friend Richards 1901 London Sporting Park 12ga and my 1897 WJ Jeffery 16ga . Richard got the two birds in the photo while my 16 accounted for another cock bird and a half share in a snipe . We had a good morning and walked off a bit of yesterdays turkey .
ALL THE BEST WJ |

| Nice to see the stewardship of old guns continue in the purpose they were intended. Gil |

Thanks for sharing your day!
I wish I could have a replay of mid October to mid November around my parts. We're at the cold, icy, crusty-snow stage around here. |
