Am 36 yrs old and starting shooting here in the UK when I was 12 yrs old.

First gun was an ancient rickety old single barrel .410 "poachers gun" which was lethal and soon replaced by my o/u Rizzini 12 bore. Still have this and use it for mainly wildfowling, with my 1870 Reilly Hammergun as my mainstay gun now. Also use a 16 bore s/s sidelock ejector by Darlow and a 16 bore s/s Webley and Scott 700.

Keenly searching for a decent 8 bore/gauge to use on the marshes here in the UK and own for the long term - not an easy task presently.
