The 28 is mathematically "perfect" according to the British, and I defer to them about all things shotgun. Something about the width and length of the shot column being ideal for patterns. I don't know about that, but I know the 28 drops birds all out of proportion to its size, so I am believing...

Wish they had the classic narrow grooves on the slide. Those wide ones always look like a Philippine .45 to me. Thankfully it is lacking forward cocking serrations.

I would say if one is worried about resupply the .308 chambering gets the nod.

Very nice! You bet your Aya that is a reasonable alternative to an English shotguns on a realistic budget. They are very lively with the balance right between the hands...now that I am getting older, I am thinking about trimming down my lifelong collection. I should do that and buy an Aya. Lot...

Was lucky enough to be around when Jack Rowe was filming his DVD on gunsmithing English shotguns. The workmanship is beyond compare. Remarkable.

I have a good friend that is a constant corrupter, offering to let me shoot numerous firearms that are beyond my means. His English shotguns are my favorites. Almost like them enough to come out of retirement long enough to buy one...almost.

Nothing like traveling outside the United States to make someone realize how great this Country is! But I do continue to have a lifelong weakness for English Cars and Motorbikes.

Simon, while you are across the pond I hope you have carved out some time to visit Holland and Holland's London Gunroom. Handling a fine English shotgun will make you a believer!

To each his own, but buying cars and not driving them breaks my heart. If my toy cars are on a trailer, they are either being stolen or are broken beyond roadside repairs.

Brommeland Holster. I am thinking he has passed on, but he made a heck of a comfortable rig.

I read everything I see...never know when you might pick up something new. This felt like an AI article to me as it lacked Ayoob's usual personality. But in the end, I agree with everything he says. My dad is 86 years old and still can rack the slide without effort just by cocking it first...

Ha ha Killer Ford! I finally found the right wife after 20 plus years of try outs. Not trading her for anything! But my Cobra is factory built by Backdraft Racing. Check them out...I have had mine since age 50, over ten years with no troubles; wife would not ride a motorcycle with me, but loves...

I have been stuck in the 60's since the 80's. And loving it.

Down to 87 in Missouri, has been in mid 90's for a couple of weeks, and I have to swim to the mailbox because of the humidity.

The X series Glocks make no sense to me. The butt is the hard part to hide, not the BBL. So I cut my Glock 19 grip frame down to 26 dimensions back in the day when you had to buy a custom slide from Suarez to get a RMR mount. Works great for me. Stock 19 on the right. In the winter when it is...

My wife shoots weekly in a Sporting Clays League. She is Hell on wheels with a shotgun, but never warmed up to hand guns. So she carries the handgun she shoots the best...round butt skinny barrel .38 four inch S&W Model 10. Loaded with 158 grain Buffalo Bore lead semi wadcutter hollow points +P...

Remember that Safety Slugs he was talking up were during the dark ages of ammo. They were probably more relevant then as opposed to now. Having said that, I have Glaser Safety Slugs in my .25 acp Colt Vest Pocket model. Every little bit helps when you are talking .25 acp.

A good friend of mine works for Norma. Hard to get handguns in Sweden. So after jumping thru all the hoops to get a handgun, his choice? Ruger Redhawk in .357 Magnum. This was before the Super Redhawk. But his choice of a strong handgun that will likely go the distance for his lifetime...a Redhawk.

Commie gun, Commie ammo. SKS runs it ok, but I would not run steel cased ammo thru my Sig 556R for love nor money. It was almost free in the late 80's. I had a suit and tie job back then and a Cop buddy with an FFL. Dealer price for ten or more was 75 bucks, Chinese SKS straight off of Tienimen...

As for me, I carry a .45 because a fella runs out of time before he runs out of bullets. If I can't solve the problem with 8 shots, another 8 probably won't tip the balance.
