Upland to me usually means wild bobwhite or blue quail. Though I am increasingly fond of the 16 my "go to" guns seem to end up being my little Parker 12 on a one frame or a little Lefever G 12. Both with Damascus barrels. I've just used them so long they just seem to belong. While my clay loads are almost always 7/8 ounce #8, when it comes to feathers I up it to an ounce of #7's.

My Parker 12



Sometimes a real oldie gets to play. Charles Daly, circa 1875.



Or, when I go over to the dark side-- covey rise with a single shot 16.


When an old man dies a library burns to the ground. (Old African proverb)
