Cherry 20 Gauge
« on: September 07, 2014, 01:44:49 AM »
I've been toying with this gun for a couple weeks after finishing my last painted 28ga. This one sports a 56" barrel from Larry Horrigan, a Chamber's Christian's Spring lock, Bess butt plate & a fowler trigger guard. It's a little longer than I need, about 6' total length and tips the scale at a mere 9 3/4 lbs. with a little more wood remaining to be removed. I'm hoping it's done before the EPR. I'd like to shoot it there.



Here's the old Kebster showing you how long the gun is when it's resting on my shoe. He's about 5' 11" without all the hair spray.

You will save a lot on shot and powder with that firearm.Just swing the barrel until you make contact.

How about a picture of the step ladder you'll need to load it?

No ladder needed,just stand on the tail gate of a truck.

That adds a whole new meaning to the term, ""Reach out and touch someone"!

I can see why people develop coulrophobia..... my now 18 year old granddaughter had such an affliction when she was little, she went in full blown panic mode when she saw a clown.
