I shoot a Parker Bros. 12 bore, a Fox-Sterlingworth 12 bore, Ithaca 20 bore, Winchester 101s in 12 and 20, and my first gun, a 20 ga. Springfield-Stevens. I also have a 16 ga "Truvalue" made by Stevens. Yes, I have 2 pumps but no autos. One pump is a slug gun and the other has an abbreviated 20" barrel (yeah I have a hunting length barrel but never use it) for keeping evil at bay. All the hunting guns are doubles or singles (almost forgot ). More fun.

I was raised on doubles anyway, side-by-sides at that. No problem. It is the pumps and autos that feel odd to me. I'm not into kill, kill, kill anyway. So few quail now, I'd leave the covey after one. Like to see the dogs work. Dove, well, a single might be a "handicap" but a double isn't. Really can't think of anything except home defense where a double is a handicap.
