The one situation where I might enjoy using a matched pair would be in Cordoba, Argentina. Having been twice I can picture the usefulness of that because you can shoot incoming doves for three straight hours, just as if they were driven by beaters. But, the catch would be the time wasted to train your bird boy in the safe and proper way to swap guns and reload them. And I'd probably be reticent to have a newbie loader standing behind me.

I plan on another trip there in '22, but the only way I'll have a matched pair is if I were to be able to rent them there. And there's about as much chance of that as there is of it sleeting in hell. Their idea of a matched pair would be two Beretta A400s.


May God bless America and those who defend her.
