    FAIR (Rizzini) Jubilee 12ga - LEFT HANDED

    I’ve got a few break action shotguns but they are all neutral, no dedicated left hand versions, so maybe I assumed too much. I did have a single barrel with a palm swell for a right hander that I just couldn’t get used to.

    FAIR (Rizzini) Jubilee 12ga - LEFT HANDED

    Don’t know about this one but the opening lever can be also left handed. Easier to pull with your thumb instead of push.

    Game warden checks?

    Calm down folks, really. I have a hard time thinking why anyone could give two episodes of sexual intercourse what is said on venues such as this. Me, I have a shotgun lost in the mail someplace out east. Now that is worth getting worked up about.

    Game warden checks?

    Yes, on that piece it just made it easier to enroll the whole thing. The duck hunters liked it.

    Game warden checks?

    I have known all the DNR enforcement folks in the lakes area for many years, they are pretty chill generally. I think during the summer they bring one or two in from other areas on the hot weekends to help out, probably not what they want to be doing. To be fair Okoboji gets some real aholes...

    Ambergoose Alert….

    Somehow I think he would enjoy that comment. Doesn’t seem to be the thin skinned type. I couldn’t stand to live in a world where everyone was like me, how boring.

    Game warden checks?

    We have a property we put into the IHAP program for 3 years. The DNR was supposed to burn it but never did so we took it out. The place was 1/3 CRP 1/2 corn field and the rest pond and lake shore. Duck hunters liked it, so did deer hunters. Anyway the next door person, farm is all CRP, didn’t...

    Choke measurement tool

    Don’t have that one but I have others that are similar, they don’t agree with each other often. Choke designation is an odd thing. The definition is a certain %of pellets in a certain sized circle at so many yards. It can only be an accurately determined by shooting the shotgun. You can look up...

    New a5 20 guage

    My father was a Smith and Wesson dealer for many years. He sold a ton of their long guns, rifles and shotguns, made in Japan. The rifles were extremely well made. The shotguns were not as well received, they were heavy and the early ones had some issue I don’t remember right now. The Super...

    New a5 20 guage

    Actually the Japanese Brownings are functionally better than any made prior. The Japanese Model 12s are things of beauty. I enjoy my 1940s auto five and it’s clones but if I had to carry one exclusively, it would be a Japanese auto five.

    Quick Annual Nesting Cover

    I am fully convinced the demise of oats as a cash crop in Iowa is one major reason we don’t have the pheasants we did in the past. Think about it, disk late March, early April and seed the oats. Don’t go back in until the middle of August to combine. Then Jack rabbits. We had them by the...
