Karl, a very Merry Christmas to you as well.
And to all my friends on this site....Merry Christmas. May Santa bring you what you both need and want!
I need and want a particular bar in wood 16 gauge hammer gun but I don't think Santa knows where it is. I guess I'll just have to help the jolly old fella out!
The world cries out for such: he is needed & needed badly- the man who can carry a message to Garcia

Owen,
Acually I believe the Merkel 1620 is out because Santa knows that I've been eyeing a prewar Churchill 12 bore. I hope he knows that I've been very good this year.
I hope that everyone's wishes come true this Christmas!
Karl

Karl, Your excellent behavior has started you down a dangerous path. English guns are addictive and expensive!! Bravo on the Churchill and we look forward to many game-and-gun photos displays featuring the same.

Owen,
I've never owned an English gun and thought that I should have one to join the flock. Remember, I said "one"!
I reflect at this time of year to be thankful to have what I really need, in spite of wanting more. Warmth, peace and health to everyone at this time of year.
Karl

Merry Xmas to you Karl. Im excited to hear more about the Churchill! Sidelock or box lock? Are you getting one of the XXV guns? As mentioned above, English guns may be addictive? I am very fond of the ones I own. This season, I have been hunting grouse and quail with an older Holland 16 bore I bought from Kirby Hoyt not too long ago. The gun has only border engraving, some case color and dove tailed 28 barrels, but nevertheless is marked as a Royal. Its an old gun before the Royals were assisted openers. The gun weighs 5 lb 13 oz and is a pleasure to carry all day long. With this in mind, and after reading many of your posts, I hope you take the plunge and treat yourself to an English double. Im guessing you will be very happy with a Churchill, which are very fine guns.
Socialism is almost the worst.
