Maine season opened.FINALLY
Permalink  
 


I have been waiting IMpatiently for our season to open. In the meanwhile I have been shooting skeet to practice. I think it has paid off. Shot a double yesterday and another today. My little terrier has proven once again that water retrieves are possible for a 10 pound dog.smile

 

Here's a pic of the double and a third that flew in for the "dying crow" sound on my spitfire.

PS- that's my new shotgun. Winchester Super-X pump 12 gauge. I did the camo myself. It came black. I like the gun a lot. Safety in front of trigger on trigger-guard.....where it belongs.

Nice work MH...and yes IMO too the safety on a pumpgun belongs infront of the trigger guard. After all, thats where T.C. Johnson put it when he designed the M12 Winchester a hundred years agosmile

Nice Job Maine.

The best place for a safety is on the top tang of a doublegun or on top of the receiver of a pump like a Browning BPS where it can be worked with ones thumb. Right handed or left handed does not matter. The trigger finger has only one action, a shot can fired faster after the release of the safety than a safety in front or in back of a trigger guard.

Nice job Maine,

 

I don't care where you put the safety as long as it is not reversed for a left handed shooter.

I like the top-tang safety, shot one for over 20 years, but I am already used to this safety and like it more than ever.

 

And YES, I agree about the reversed safety 8fishermen. :)
