How about a Holland & Holland double rifle?

Now I am sporting wood! I want a double rifle! After I win the loto.

If I want a S/S....I just turn my O/U on its side "gansta style".

Kinda like this concept:

Just kidding, I like Side by Side's. Most the best shotguns ever built are on that format.

DallasFJ40 · 11-29-07, 08:17 AM

I wish I could add some of those to my collection. A nice sxs is also a decent investment, as they typically appreciate in value. Although they may not provide a return like Google, they will not depreciate like a 'normal' gun.

I love my little WC & Scott 28 gauge.

Trunk Monkey · 11-29-07, 08:35 AM

I counter with A. Zoli sporting 20.

Wow, that checkering on the 21 is awsome.

When I go up to visit my younger brother next month, I'll post some pictures of some his Krieghoff's.

I'd love to have one of their double guns or maybe a drilling. Of course, they make fine shotguns too.

My father was a competative shooter. His preffered guns were Krieghoff 4 barrel sets. He had two Super Crowns and a Crown grade. I only had a 3200 (32?) skeet.

Unfortunately he sold the good guns before his death. If I remember back in the 70's the Super Crowns were @ $25k.

Wish I had those guns around!

I have a drilling. 12 gauge side by side, with a 7x57 rifle barrel underneath. It also has a drop in .22 insert for one of the 12 gauge barrels, and a quick detachable Zeiss scope. It was a gift to my grandfather from the National Rifle Association. It is an absolutely amazing gun.

I also have a model 23 (not a 21, but still nice). I much prefer my 20 gauge Superposed. Far more accurate. Not nearly as pretty, but a better gun.

Yeah,

For a "hunting" gun.....the Superposed will always be hard to beat.

I much prefer the field grade look to the presentation look.

Side by sides are the best gun to tell people to get off your land.(insert banjo music)

Agreed, but I still prefer a side-by-side

I was raised on side-by-sides and as a young teen I carried a VHE Parker 16 gauge with 25 inch barrels. That thing swung so fast it was scary....

I hunt exclusively with a Browning BSS boxlock 12 gauge 2 3/4 with 28 inch barrels, modified and full. I love that gun.

brian · 11-29-07, 05:46 PM

i could see how sidexsides would be cool, if they had a pair of 10 or 15 rd magazines underneither them and some kind of gas operating system

Where is John Browning when we need him?

He could whip one out in a couple weeks......

.

Know what you mean. My Superposed (12 ga.) has 26" barrels and was meant to be used on upland birds and quail, so it definitely shoulders fast and swings briskly.

I can press it into service on ducks as well, but its choked mod. over mod. so I have to be selective of my shots. Still love it though.

And I have nothing against Side-by-Sides....I can shoot them too. They certainly have a "classic" look that appeals to me.

Of course, if you have a perfect shotgun to begin with, you don't need a second barrel.

Rem 1187 Coyote Destroyer

Note the two holes in the chest froom slugs. This coyote was running full throttle sideways to me at 50 feet.

Why didn't you drop him with the 1st one?

It does beg the question.
