You know, those days when it may be rainy, snowing, Etc.

Do you have a foul weather gun that you carry, instead of your prized good weather steed?

Mine would be my Syn. camo 3.5" Browning Cynergy. It will take anything you can dish out to it and come up swinging every time.

What is your foul weather gun?
 
I have a Stoeger 2000 in syntehtic camo that I use on those ugly days. Fortunattely I don't use it much as I tend to not hunt those wet miserable days. Living here in SD I can select my hunt days most of the time.

I can agree with that too. I sometimes would like to hear all the stories a old gun could tell. Each ding, scratch, Etc tells a tale. I have many old guns myself.
 
Benelli UltraLight 12 GA.

Weatherproof finish on the stock and fairly easy to take down and clean. Also nice and light to carry on those long late season walks. Works good in a snowy grouse woods too.

NB
 
My foul weather gun is an 870 Express in 20ga. It is also my good weather shotgun. lol

I am wanting to get an O/U again, as I haven't had one in over ten years. No clue as to what, just something decent in 20ga that weighs in somewhere between 6-6.5 pounds.
 
My Stoeger Condor II (instead of my Browning 625 Citori).
 
Until last year I was using my Beretta Xtrema II, but I really don't like hunting pheasants with it, so last year I had the varnish removed from my prized Beretta 687 OU and had it oil-finished instead. The gunsmith also oil finished all the inner wood surfaces (which were not protected by varnish), so now the wood is much more weather resistant. The rest of it is pretty easy to clean, and if I have to send it in once a decade for some work on the guts of it, well that's a small price to pay for the pleasure of carrying that gun on all my pheasant hunts...

My foul weather gun is a Beretta 391, same as my good weather gun.

I do carry a 60 year old Ithaca 37 20 guage, and if the weather was terrible, it would stay in the truck.
