I hope it sees a lot of time in the field somewhere. It certainly is a beauty.


Brent I have every expectation it will become one of my go-to upland guns.

Currently my favourite is my Lovena sidelock. This year I am adding this Charles Daly and finishing the restock and restoration of my Sauer sidelock. All three guns are slightly sub 6 1/2 pounds, two with 28” barrels and one with 29” barrels. Obviously I have to spend time shooting the two new additions to make sure they fulfill their promise but, while accounting for their different chokes, my expectation is those three will handle the bulk of my hunting needs.
