I only have one H&R shotgun. It's a Topper in .410.  Used for squirrel, bunnies and vermin around the property.  It is my favorite shotgun also.

How many and What
« Reply #2 on: March 04, 2005, 12:04:03 PM »
I have a 12ga Combo.  It came  24inMod barrel(yes 24in), and Tracker II barrel.  It came with the nice nylon case, too.  ON SALE at Gander Mountain last month.  $100 I just couldn't pass it up.  That's all for now, but will get a TDC 20 before fall.  I would also like to at a Handi and MAYBE a Sidekick or Huntsman.   :wink:

12ga topper deluxe I've used for geese. this one has a camo laminate straight stock and a sling for walking to the pit or blind.

20ga model 198 topper deluxe for rabbit and squirel. this gun replaced my first gun. It took me 16 years to find another after my ex pawned the origional.

up until a couple weekends ago my favorite walking around gun was a 12ga Pardner with a 22" barrel and the origional stocks fro the 12ga topper deluxe mentioned above. I painted the stock and forearm O.D. green. I broke the forearm lug off and the barrel is going to be replaced with a 24" 12ga barrel that I am purchasing from another forum member.

12 ga topper deluxe slug that is my primary deer gun now. This is basicaly a tracker2 barrel on a topper deluxe. It has a beautiful and very effective porting job. I lucked out and got it for $82.00 on gunbroker.

10ga model 176 with a 36"barrel for those days when the geese just don't want to come low enough.

I recently inherited a .22/.410 versa-pac that I gave my Dad for his birthday last year. I also inherited an old .58cal huntsman and a 12ga huntsman muzzleloader.

I still need a 16ga and 28ga to round things out.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 2.) Next gun 12 gauge pardner, modified choke, shcnable forened, sling studs, sling, shell holder on but stock~ Use this for small game and skeet
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 3.) And i know its not a shotgun but a .223 handi, laminated stock, o ring trick, polished bore, leopold rings, Bushnell 3-8x scope but soon a 2-14x Nikon will be on it~I use this for varmints, long range plinking, and just paper punching, well i guess thats only 3, but out of my 12 guns, they are my favorites...and i can use these 3 guns for everything i do and i dont have to keep changing gun setups because they all feel and handle pretty close to the same for me...This are some great guns!

Markus nice collection you have there!!!!  Man I love hunting with my
16 ga  it does everything a 12 ga do without the kick.  I had mine out to the range today and I was hitting the traget out to 40 yrds with enough pellets to kill a turkey.  I'm shhooting PMC heavy field loads as my turkey loads for this gun.

I think I'm going to try to find a plain old pardner 16ga used. There was a good one for $60.00 at the gun shop I use for over a yearand by the time I finally had the money in my pocket and happened to be in the shop at the same time it was gone.

My collection:

12 gauge Pardner- Used to be back up duck gun.  Now just a fun gun.  My son did use it during youth waterfowl season this year.
20 gauge barrel- Always wanted a 20 gauge, so I bought a barrel.
12 gauge Deluxe Classic- Back up duck and pheasant gun.  Used it this year and love it.  I will never sell this one.
.50 Huntsman Deer front stuffer season
25.06 UltraBought it for no particular reason.  Its a keeper as well.

I did have a 10 gauge but was forced to sell it shortly after its purchase.  I never even fired the thing.  It was one of those, I needed the money things.

I love my NEF's.

                          I think the 12GA Ultra Slugger Barrel will be my next purchase but then agian I'm having allot of sucess with the slug gun I own now.... What do you guys thinks ?  I hunt allot of rolling hills with thick cover.  No shot over 50 yrds......But I have this 10 ga frame so why not ?????  You never know I might be able to hunt some clear areas thats needs a good long shooting gun ??????
Let me know what you think.
