RE the case color, jOe, of course everyone knew it was a joke and that you knew they were real cyanide colors. In terms of the Mossberg and cheapness, you may have something there. Ted does seem to prefer cheapness, as evidenced by getting his wife a single shot hammer gun to shoot. Not sure the type, but I'm guessing it's one of the old junker single shot hammer guns......you know, like the ones you see at Cracker Barrel over the fireplace. He even poo pooed getting her a Franchi, the old 20's aren't even that expensive, only about $500. Why not a Franchi 28 for the wife if recoil were a problem (or a benelli) but the shells are likely too expensive, alas, a single shot hammer gun for the poor girl. ;-)
The single shot is an Italian "Companion" 20 gauge hammerless shotgun. I never said it was a hammergun, you just assume many things, like all H&H Royals are built to light game gun configuration, something that anyone who knows anything at all about the guns understands is not true.
If you find a Companion at a Cracker Barrel, I'd be quite surprised. They are a far better than average quality single shot.
Another thing you assumed, is that the 28 recoils less than the 20, which, is simply untrue. Remember what I said about assuming things, Buzz? I'll give you some quick schooling, because you, like jOe, need quite a bit of it. The 20 gauge Winchester Featherlites, loaded in the Companion, simply kick less and are quieter than the commercial 28 gauge loads, in any 28 gauge gun we have tried.
You know Buzz, you spend a lot of time talking out of your butt. You post untruths, and plain and simple bullshit, either for a cheap thrill, or due to the outright stupidity of your assumptions.
Do continue the love fest with jOe, it demonstrates more, in a shorter amount of time, than anything I can really say.
Just like jOe, don't feel the need to "man up" and admit anything you ever posted is wrong, or untrue.
Nobody would expect that out of either of you two.
I promise.
Best,
Ted
