It is sad to admit that as I get older I not only match type of gun, gauge, ammo, shot size, choke or choke combination, stock selection from several choices for most gun choices, all to my outfit. Such vanity is not attractive but I am such a slave to fashion. I envy my simpler youth with one gun choice, maybe two choices in shot size and of course keen eyesight and reflexes of my youth.

I think we all think too much about what we need to be perfect. Right gun, right ammo, right hunting jacket. Some of my happiest hunting memories are of things which clearly could have been better planned or just happened inspite of my efforts. But if you must by all means buy another gun. Lord knows I've done it before and will do so again.
