Larry, Good post. Like you I recently acquired a 28 lightweight Brit game gun (20ga, 5lbs 4ozs.) and have been impressed with its handling and accuracy. I am looking forward to testing it on grouse this winter. There will definitely be some thick cover one hand carry places. I also purchased a 28ga 30 boxlock from Birmingham which I wound up giving to a close family member and it has been fun to compare the dynamics of the two. Both are stocked to 15 with wood extensions.
