but why mushroom gun?


i've heard that used, but nobody
has ever been able to tell me
where that moniker originates. :-\

 
There is an article that I found googling "mushroom gun" that said they are popular to carry while mushroom harvesting. tom.

Friend who went hunting in Polar bear country said they had a 12 ga. that was mandatory to take when you went to the latrine......apparently, Polar bears are smart enough to lay in wait to ambush you as you go to the latrine.

The really smart ones will wait til you are leaving the outhouse......

'Shrooms can be quite dangerous, but they only attack in the dark.  Hate to think what might attack when you're closed up in an outhouse.  GW

There was an article in the Backwoodsman magazine years back on the mushroom gun.

Seems to be it was a single shot 410 or 20 gauge with the stock cut down to about pistol grip carry and the barrel was cut to 18.5 inches long.

Just something to run off coyotes or dogs I guess while foraging mushrooms.

Made one once but from a 12 gauge.  I was good till I shot 3" mag buckshot out of it.  That hurt.

nothing more dangerous than tracking a wounded outhouse


they  bleed brown  and you don't want to step in it



it would take something big to stop a charging  outhouse


better hit then in the right spot first shot....its all about  placement

Hey, I live in Kansas, home of the original "big house" (Levenworth Federal Penitentiary) and I have driven by it.   Trust me NO ONE would want to go there.
