    Good killing. Sporty looking winchester. I love a full choke in dove field, specially in the 410 and 20 ga.

    My brother has an immaculate 97. We are going to have us a swamp hunt when he comes home for Christmas with his 97 and one of my model 12's

    I think I have tracked down a model 12 heavy duck. I wish Bismuth was cheaper
