Beretta682EAnyone Know This INFAMOUS Big Game Hunter
Now I really need to see this gun !!!!
24 May 2014, 22:59
Beretta682ERick - is it a single or double trigger gun.
Larry filled me in on some of the details of the gun.
If you want to sell it I may be interested.
I am looking a double trigger side by side utility shotgun. One barrel for slug for gator another for water moccasins as I clear some swap behind the house.
Ugly helps as I can always use that to scare the gator.

larryshoresYou missed a few of its uses Mike. It can also be used as a boat paddle. You can throw it under the tires of your truck if it gets stuck. If you need to check the zero on a rifle and no trees are around, stick the barrels in the ground and tape a target to the stock. Hell, if you hit it, the appearance might be improved.

customboltIf that really is Beibs, who's the fat guy here? No wonder I couldn't find him at the SCI show in February.
Life itself is a gift. Live it up if you can.

We need pictures.
Given Rick and Biebs are not posting any pictures and we don't know if the gun has a name.
I proposed we call it "The Biden" in honor of esteemed VP and double barrel side by side home defense expert Joe Biden.

Mike, it is a Hatfield 28ga O/U...so keep looking for your stagecoach double :-)

pagosawingnutYou guys are starting to hurt my feelings. It's mine, not biebs' anymore. Mike you don't want it, it's an O/U in a 28 ga. Not a s x s. Besides, It kinda fits my personality sometimes. I'm big and ugly so we're like mutt and jeff.

Beretta682E28 ga O/U with a single trigger and I thought I was about to get my utility double trigger sxs 12 ga. Need to start search the web for by sxs.
Rick - no wonder Mark Sullivan and Larry were laughing at you - the min for Florida Quail is 10 ga - tough little birds

Biebs - no 12 ga side by side double in your warehouse

pagosawingnutMike,
Larry wouldn't let me bring my 10 ga. Said the max ga where we were hunting was 20.
I've got a couple of Browning BSS' Might be willing to part with one of them if you need a 12 ga SxS

Do not let these guys worry you.
The FORCE is with you.

NICE Bear by the way. What did you shoot him with?
DOUBLE RIFLE SHOOTERS SOCIETY
Tony, that was up in the Dillinger Pass in Alaska 2 years ago. I used an HS Precision in 338 RUM. The shot was 381 years, as there's no cover up in the mountains. We were surrounded by Dall Sheep every day we were out. My guide up there is a 73 year old who can go up and down these mountains like a goat. I'm taking him to Zimbabwe this June...a Cape Buff has been on his life-long Bucket List.

pagosawingnutNice bear. Whats that brown thing on the ground?

Beretta682EHave to admit Biebs is very photogenic around dead animals/trophies.
His picture with my lion is Burkina is the best picture I have of the lion.
If he continues cyber bullying me - i am going to send it to lion aid and make him the poster child of their anti hunting campaign

pagosawingnutMike,
Having met both you and Biebs, I have a hard time believing that he is cyber bullying you. He just doesn't strike me as the cyber bullying kind of guy. And you don't seem like the kind of guy that gets bullied often.......

Die Ou JagterBiebs now that was a long shot, was it light years of just plain years?

Ed, it in was light years...like your recent birthdays :-)

larryshoresNice bear brother.
Larry, uphill climb in the rocks for the shot, then an 8 mile hike with the head and hide back to base camp. You earn them up there :-)

The more I know, the less I wonder !

The problem with Alaska stuff is cold wet and all this packing your stuff back to camp.
Africa is much easier after the kill.
Nice bear Biebs got me all fired up for Alaska now

Alaska is fantastic. However, the weather can wreck your hunt. I was once snowed in for 11 days.
