My new Franchi o/u arrived today.It is plume purty and fits like a dream.sxsman i had to give up my little Browning 20gaBss with a English stock to get it,But I think it was worth it.It has rained thirteen days in a role here.Soon as it stops I intend a all out dove attack.I know this gun cant miss,just have to see what I can do.

Fourteen days in a row now.When it doe's stop I will be able to pattern it on the skeeter clouds.

    Varmit:We are having one of those rare years where it hasn't froze the first week in September. We usually wait through the month of August, salivating at phone wires sagging four feet with the weight of resting doves. The night of August 31st will produce a freeze and you can go out next evening and not see a single dove, they've all moved to Utah. At least you have the chance of getting out after the rain. My doves are on their way to you. Or, you can go after the White Wings, lucky devil. Enjoy the Franchi, and hope the person who bought the Browning enjoys it as well.Clouder..

    sxsman This may help a little,I actualy picked out a home for it.I had metiond it here about nine months ago.A BIRD hunter contacted me from another state.He told me how bad he wonted it to quail hunt with .Quail hunting will always be my first love.Was a semi pro dog traner for twenty five years.Now that I cant walk,I have settled for things that come to me.I had two very high offers from people who just wonted to put it in the rack.This guy said it would take him about five months to rase the money.I cut the price to fit his budget.Some how i think a little of me will be there for each exploding covey rise.Clouder,Hope you can cut a chunk outa them doves before they come my way,dont shakum to bad,cause my swing ant what it used to be.Thanks to all of you,I wish yall new how each and every one of you helps me through the day.Bless you my friends.
