I Love the straight stock on that ZP49!

I got my fist kill with my ZP47 today. First time I shot it too!

I live on a small acreage, and we have outdoor cats that help cull the mouse population, they do a great job of it, and we feed them as well. We have magpie birds that are consistently eating all the outdoor cat food, not to mention they usually wake me up on weekends with there constant chatter.

I've tried for weeks to get them with the pump shotgun, but there sly, every time they hear the slightest creek of the door, there gone.

Except today I got up early, its a beautiful -3C and light fluffy snow is falling, so decided I would take the new double out for a test run. They of course scattered as soon as I went outside, but I went down to the closest bush and waited there return.

I cracked the Brno open and slid two shells in, flicking it back closed and marveled to myself how much more elegant the SxS was compared to my pump guns. I also noted that the safety returns to safe each time its opened, and how light the gun felt in my hands. And waited.

About 10 minutes later the first bird returned for his snack. He perched in a tree close, scanning the area for cats or dangers, not seeing me, I shifted my weight to get a better angle, the snow creeked under my boot, and he took flight. As if I had owned the gun all my life, it snapped to my shoulder, I instinctively slid the safety forward to the off position, and pulled the rear trigger. He fell from the sky 50 paces away, and the Brno had its first firing, and first kill all in one.





I know its not the most exciting hunting story one will read on Nitroexpress, but my heart was sure pumping, and I love my new Brno.
