Diggory & The M-21, or An Unrequited Love Story

Help Diggory caption this photo:

A) Wow, this isn't as bad as I thought.

B) Ed! I'll trade you my Purdey for it.

C) Oh for F#$#'s sake don't snap that picture.

The expression on Dig's face communicates answer A; that a M-21 in 20 gauge isn't as bad as I thought...

I was thinking it had more in common with a guy who picked up an interesting rock, and realized, a second before the shutter snapped, that the rock was actually elephant dung, to the laughing of his mates.
In all fairness, a 21 single trigger is very comparable to an English single trigger-for reliablility.
Great photo, looks like a grand time.

Best,
Ted

I don't know... to me Dig on this pic looks exactly like Clint Eastwood in one of these old spaghetti westerns. You know, the famous "Yeah" right before having to gunfight an extra large crowd of extra bad stunts smile

Humpty,

You don't know how close to the truth you are on the western analogy. The only difference being that Eastwood smoked rolled up tree bark cigars, and Dig generally has a fat Cuban in his mouth...

To be fair is is also faster on the draw than most.

Rgds,

BTW,

I can also vouch for Eds shooting. Generally the shooting was of a very high standard all round, although Alan did miss a Francolin on Thursday.

We let him off though as it was snowing at the time!!
