I'd run and hope the critter got my gun bearer, you. Then I'd eat the sandwich and drink the coke.

Actually, the question has merit, when shooting things like you 4 and 6 bores, do they ever double fire? If so the recoil is what 200 plus pounds? How do you stand that?


Double Rifles, This is the weapon of a Jedi Knight. Not as clumsy or random as bolt rifle. An elegant weapon for a more civilized age.

Big Doggy 700 has the twin to this one, and at one time also owned this rifle. I got to shoot it at his farm in Illinois three years ago.
