870 and ducks

[Virginian]

Very nice looking gun and Woodies. Don't tell me you had a retreiver in that canoe or I will get jealous - with mine everything would have been wet !
I will have to wait a while for my buddy to email me some of the pics he took of the geese and ducks we killed in Canada. My '66 vintage 1100 and '76 vintage 870 did fine, as usual. My 870 is just a slight tic behind yours in desirability in my mind. I had an 870 Magnum with the chrome lifter and sold it many years ago now, and it remains one of only 2 guns I really regret selling in my 60 years (and the other was a handgun). Another case of "if I had known then..."

Just ran into your post, nice photo. Shoot me an email so we can talk about about some unfinished model 17 stuff.
Thanks
