Thanks! It's the engraved fox that sealed the deal. Every trapper needs a gun with an engraved fox on it, lol. I passed up 3 of these guns in the past couple months that had the fox engraving and kept kicking myself for it. This one sold for a couple hundred less than the ones I passed on and I just couldn't pass up another, lol.

Very nice,I own a couple over under guns. 222 over 20 and a 22 mag over 410. Killed tons of stuff with both. Best gun to carry on the line-bag fur and pot meat.

Forget that fear of gravity-get a little savagery in your life.

if it is just what you wanted it , it doesn't matter it cost you more
you aren't likely to ever sell it so it's value is it's use
this is what I told myself when I customized some shotguns that I would probably never get my money out of , it didn't matter if I never intended to sell them. I was building something that didn't exist in that barrel length and configuration because it was how I wanted to shoot.
America only has one issue, we have a Responsibility crisis and everything else stems from it.

The reason I first wanted one many moons ago was for that purpose... when I would be trapping I'd often see rabbits, pheasants, and even deer during season. I thought it would be great to have a gun capable of dispatching trapped animals and also harvesting these other animals I was constantly seeing. But it'll also be a great gun for squirrel and coon hunting. Or just for generally ambling around in the woods.

I have nothing clever to put here.
