I like it,short and easy to handle.I would prefer the Chambers Late Ketland which IMHO is much better looking.

Tom; Sir, looks like a great Mich. deer hunting short rifle. All you need now is a nice corn feed buck to stand still long enough to be fired upon. Good luck. Thanks, AJ.

I'll be very happy with a sugar beet fed Doe ;) Never did figure a decent recipe for horn. Tom is a great person to deal and talk with.

Those late Ketlands are scarse as hens teeth most times.  Had a Siler so there it are.    Tom

nicely done.  Looks like it would be handy as a close-quarters grouse gun too, if he's up for the challenge ;D
