Andre MertensNew toy
Lead shot will be banned in half of my country by 2008. Not willing to jeopardize my original B 25's with steel shot, I just acquired this "steel" gun : Browning B 525 Grade 5 Prestige, 12-3" ga. + INV chokes. Even compared to the B 25, I'm impressed by the wood and finish.

CustomstoxAndre,
Gorgeous gun, I am envious. BTW, if you would like someone to continue to treat your B25's to a continuous supply of lead, I am up to the task. You can ship them to me and I will care for them and show them what a chukar mountain looks like. Nice to have friends, isn't it.

Andre MertensThanks Chic, I'll remember your generous offer
Luckily for me... and for my B25's, there's the other half of Belgium, the Walloon part, where lead shot will only be banned within 50m of waterways. Eventually and in full accordance with the regional stupidities of my country, I will have both Flemish and Walloon guns
