Very nice shotgun. I have one with the corncob foreend. I was at a local gunshow just before I bought it and a guy had a newer one with an english stock and vent rib barrel. He wanted $650 for it and I couldn’t get him to come down on the price. I asked if he would be there the next day and...

Seen similar in Texas. One ranch is trying to eradicate wild hogs. Ranch next door is selling hog hunts and is trying to breed more. Those hogs inevitably spill over on the ranch trying to get rid of hogs. Creates some issues on occasion. But its going to happen. In general, I’m against it...

I guess I can’t understand why. Some of us don’t live where there are pheasants and going to a preserve may be one way of getting in some extra outside time. I get that its not as challenging as wild birds but don’t blame the hunters.

I watched it this afternoon.

Those are a thing of beauty. Love mine except I can’t shoot a pump worth a darn. I guess I get excited in the heat of the moment and can’t remember to pump in a new shell. Its funny and frustrating all at the same time.

Handled a Franchi Instinct 16 ga and it was light. Nice gun if you want a lightweight one and you’re ok with an O/U.

I’m about to join a Hunt club/preserve. Mainly to be able to hunt with my son when he has time because, as a college student, he doesn’t have the time to take off except on the weekends and SD is a 9.5 hr drive from here. But also because I want to hunt more, and maybe get a dog for pheasant...

Thanks. Its confusing to me because around here the conservancy is not seen in a good light or as a group that is friendly to hunting or fishing. They bought up several acres of land with a river running through it for the sole purposed of re-routing the river back to its “natural course”...

I originally thought the same. But I ended up with a 28” barrel and don’t find it long at all. But I would have bought a 26” if I could have found one at the time.

Hoping this is tounge and cheek. The sweet 16 of old is as light as many today. Handles and shoots just as well. My light 12 handles and shoots just as good as my A400, if not better. Prettier to boot.

Can we get a link to the video?

Wish they had it in the all black version (stalker). I’d use one of those for duck hunting in a heartbeat.

Same here on functionality. I’ve only had mine for a year. Shot 2-3 different loads and no issues at all.

Not sure I understand this. Are you saying privately owned land or land owned by PF or conservancy could be used agriculturally and opened to the public (I presume) for hunting. Please note, I’m not disagreeing, just trying to understand.

I may not be as hard core as GooseMaster but be careful, if you shoot one, you may find its as special as he says.
