I have a couple of favorites. 1st a 12ga FE grade Lefever which has been fit with a 2nd set of Italian made steel bbls in 26' with .012/.024 chokes (originals are 30" damascus). Wt of 7½lbs & it has been used for a very wide assortmant of game by laod variation, from woodcock to Duck & Turkey.
My other favorite is a J P Clabrough sidelock 12ga 28" damascus @ 6lb 14oz choked about .010/.010 (¼choke). This gun has been used only in the uplands (quail, woodcock, rabbit) with a light 1oz smokeless reload But I shoot it extremely well (For Me).
