    Here is my current arsenal of old time turkey killers that are now paper target killers. All have won their share of money.

    The gun on top is a Stevens 940E .12 gauge side lever with a 36" barrel from the 1960s. It has a .680 XX Full Choke.

    The middle gun is a Long Tom .16 gauge with a 40" full choke barrel. This gun was made in the early 1930s I believe. It has no maker mark, serial number or even a gauge designation on it. This gun looks like new.

    The bottom gun is a Winchester 37A with a 36" barrel made in Canada in the 1970s. It has Remington rifle sights, a match chamber and a .640" XXXX full choke. This gun shoots AA Winchester target loads the best. It puts 90 percent of the shot in a 6 inch circle at 66 feet.

    I just realized I cant post attachments yet. As soon as I am allowed, I will post a picture of my long guns.

    I have my great grand fathers long tom. It is a 12 ga with 36" full choke barrel. I did some research on mine and it was made for Sears Roebuck and Co by Stevens.

    Apparently I cant post pictures until I get 50 posts put on here. I dont have a lot of free time. I will put some pics on here as soon as I am allowed. The owners of this site can feel free to delete my worthless posts anytime they want. i spend most of my free time shooting, not surfing the net.

    I finally got the picture thing working. If I have this site up in two windows, I can copy and paste from one INGO window to another INGO window. My Internet Explorer stopped working the first time I tried it. At least it works.

    Single shots are so fun. I noticed H&R was making a trap version of the topper with a 30" barrel, high rib and twin beads. I think it would make a great clay gun for those of us who shoot only a few hundred rounds of birds a year.
