I got back from the Southwest last weekend after chasing quail for 10 days. The numbers were way down from last year but we still had fun. Since this is a double gun forum I figured I would title it about the gun
. I took my Waverly model Dickson in XXV configuration with me on the trip. I just bought the gun this last summer from RMC and have really enjoyed it. So far I have taken eight different upland species with it this year. It is shaping up as my favorite hunting gun. In addition to my Dickson I brought my GWP Daisy and my EP Sammie. My hunting partner Greg also accompanied me shooting that gawd awful Benneli Ultra Lite of his
.
We started out hunting Gambels Quail.

Both Greg and I being professional archaeologists, we are always on the lookout for remains of the past. During the first few days we encountered several pieces of rock art.
