We tried to be selective about our shots. Want the young ones to grow for next year.

Congratulations on your success and yes, you hunt with beautiful shotguns! I recognize the Model 12, but what make and gauge is your SXS?

AJ JEWSON OF HALIFAX.  ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL ENGLISH S X S AND VERY WELL BUILT.   AJ JEWSON WAS LIKE AN LL BEAN IN ENGLAND. THE GUN WAS MOST LIKELY made by SCOTT.  VINTAGE DOUBLES IN WENATCHEE WILL DO YOU RIGHT!
