The high listing of shooting regulations for shooting pigeons?? I love to shoot barn pigeons, but have never shot pigeons in any competition, nor probably never will. I did own and shoot a optioned 12 L.C. Smith 3E that was set up in the late 1920's (my guess anyway) for a Philadelphia sportsman named Charles Backstrand (head Fred of Armstrong Cork and Tile (Linoleum Flooring) and he may have been a member of the Philadelphia Gun Club-- back in the day. I shoot barn pigeons on area dairy farms, mainly with my M12's, that's as close as I get-sharpens my eyes for the coming waterfowling seasons. I surmise you have the 2nd. edition, as do I, of Hemingway's Guns--Just for "funzies" of all his guns over the years whose whereabouts are known, pick one each: rifle, handgun. shotgun once owned and shot by "Don Ernesto" that you could own and use, free and clear, yet today--OK- here's my picks-- Shotgun- the 12 gauge Beretta O/U with the case and his Cuban residence marked thereon- Rifle-- the G&H custom 30-06, and if possible, the Heiser case and also the scope and case and the G&H mount- Pistol-- either of the 2 Colt Match Target Woodsman pistols- the 4& 1/2" long barrel or the 6" barreled one-- Not ever gonna happen, but a feller can dream, right??
