My first flyers were shot in about 1960 at Drifton, PA. Practice birds were a dollar apiece and competition birds were about a buck and a half. I...
Steel DAs are the only ones not faked. Go for it.

Joe, there won't be any difference. 7/8 is 7/8 no matter the size of the hole. I gave up shooting 12 gauge shells after two trips to the World. My...
Bobby Smith's World Record 249 stood for many years. I bought his Model 12 plain barrel skeet on gunbroker maybe ten years ago. He was a Maryland...

Are the 20 gauge barrel for a 20 gauge frame or a 12 gauge frame? Do you still have them?
I like it. What is the serial number? Why can't I enlarge the pictures?
Somehow, my post ended this thread. Why is that?
No more than one poster on this thread has ever shot competitive skeet.
I once won a Calcutta in a skeet shoot on the Eastern Shore of MD. It was a team Calcutta, my share was one third. The shootoff went three rounds...
On August 5, 2023, they were "Factory Ribs". No mention whether they were solid ribs or vent ribs. Now they are one set solid rib, one set Simmons...

What book and which features are you looking for?
Belated thanks for your reply.
Jeffrey, why won't you answer the guy's question? Are they Tula barrels or aren't they?
I have a set of 29" barrels that I know are original pigeon barrels. They were a catalog item at one time as I recall.

You aren't going to get it with a recoil pad.
Thanks for your reply.
Weight of these barrels?
How much do these barrels weigh?
Bob, what is the weight of the Parcours receiver compared to a standard receiver?

I don't think "Rookieshooter" meant his post to be a compliment.
I wonder if Tibbets and Patton shot registered NSSA birds?
In the early days of skeet, at the bigger shoots, it was common to recognize shooters way down the winner's list. The 26th place shooter wouldn't be...

It is no one's Pigeon Grade. It is a Grade 1 with terrible wood that must be replaced at a cost way more than the value of the gun once the work is...
Decades ago, I visited. I was impressed by the pallets of Perazzis in the showroom. My travelling companion bought a high grade Citori single.
Rock Island's internet and catalog pictures are black as coal. A buyer has to be there to bid intelligently.
