Including me. I think I now have six Turkish made shotguns; four SxS and two self-loaders. I won’t use a Spanish gun for something it was never intended to do.

But, to paraphrase King Juan Carlos,

“When I talk business I speak English. When I talk of love I speak French. But when I talk to God, I use Spanish.”

When I hunted I used a Remington model 31. When it comes time to take care of business I reach for the Police Remington 870. But when I want to feel God Himself smile, I carry a Spanish side lock.
