GLS, Pato would die for an MP18!
BTW the OD on his barrel is just like the MP18's. It looks like an old lead water pipe.

Gil,
Four pounds will work fine. My little Yildiz Elegante 4 had about 8 lb. triggers, but I worked them down myself to about 3 1/2-4 lbs.
I hope to see you posing with a big gobbler next spring!

Hello Destry,
`A propos of Pato, you should have seen his face when he shot down a duck, it
fell into a branch of the Maipo river -fortunately with no current- and my teckel
Emma dove in and made a retrieve out to around 40 yards, with Daisy, a yellow
Labrador, looking from the shore. It is the time I have most missed not having a
camera!

JC JayCee: Is that in machine Pistol 18? I've got two 32 round snail drums for these. I've never has a chance to buy an MP 18 but I'd jump at the chance. Jim

Jim, I was referring to a Baikal MP18 GLS mentioned in post #283394 above. I don't think Pato would have much use for a machine pistol.  JC

Well JayCee you never know: Keep in mind that they load shotshells for the Thompson SMG!!  I've always wondered how one of these would work on South American dove hunting!!  Jim

Turkey gun is done! Now if I can only be as successful a hunter as Pato... Baikal MP18, 20 gauge.

I had a friend back in my teems that had the most "automatic" of these single shots I've ever seen. Every time he's pull the trigger the gun would then pop open and eject the spent shell. If he wasn't holding on or the tape had worn that held the forearm on it would them fall off as well. I used to give him quite a bit of "distance" when we were hunting.
Jim My first shotgun was an old H&R single shot 12 gauge. I was ten as I recall. The recoil was so fierce, that when the gun recoiled the forearm would stay in my left hand as I toppled back. Each time I shot it I'd have to put it back together. Remember one time it happened and at the same time my right thumb accidentally pressed down on the opening button and I was left holding the forearm in my left hand. The buttstock/frame in my right hand, and the barrel was laying on the ground. Man I hated that gun. Don't ever make a kids first gun a single shot 12 gauge when he weighs about 80 pounds.

To many hunters a gun is nothing more than a tool. Thus the popularity of synthetic and camo stocks. Pato proves that you don't even need that though he seems to really like the camo duds.
