I too am facing this situation right now, as I get ready to go on a several day chukar/quail hunting trip next week. I plan on taking my Husqvarna 44 16ga hammer gun, which does have some historical significance in that it is the only one of its kind I know of. Even so, I can't bear to leave it at home in the safe, because it was made to be used. I'll do my best to take care of it, and hope for the best. Short of severely denting the barrels, I figure there's nothing I can do to it that can't be fixed.
