Regarding "go tos", interesting. My pencil-check quick count of the first named gun noted by each respondent indicates about 11 12 gauge guns (and most of these on the lighter side), 9 16 gauge guns, 6 20 gaugers, 2 410s and a couple of neat percussions. The most often mentioned maker was Fox - - and all of these were either 20 gauge (3) or 16 gauge (3).

Many respondents chose to list several go-to guns by game choice. Only the first was counted.

A final observation is that sometimes I feel that half the Fox 20s and 16s still in use are owned by forum members - - (and probably 75% of the HE Foxes).
