Well, nobody is perfect but if he took some snooty L.A. leftists for 75 million he is doing alright in my book.
SanMan, I shoot a Mossberg 500. Actually I had to look up Superposed. That might be too shiny for the duck blind but if you are following a GSP or a visla it would be fine. If you ever want to come duck hunting with me though, bring whatever gun you care to. I mostly hunt alone, without even a dog, but when I get company I let them do the shooting.
Well if you aren't a good decent man,..... thank you so much for that offer.
Oh,.......my Superposed,..... it was a gift from a long time friend who has since passed away.
A 12 ga, it is "white" from use in the field.
The wood is dry and hammered,....
I just love it.
The action had some slop in the lock up,.....
a very close friend, an expert on shotguns, did the repair perfectly.
It locks up solid and the lever is dead straight.
He told me that someone had shot a lot of duck loads in it.
My love affair with the Superposed started at one of those "manufacturers day" at
the gun range where I was a member.
About 1980
Remington brought a bunch of rifles and
shotguns, Same for Winchester, Ruger brought a lot of everything,......
Browning brought some nice rifles, shotguns, and handguns.
You pay a small amount of money and you get to shoot what you'd like to try.
I paid a few dollars and tried a .45 long colt, it was nice,.....
There was a .375 Holland & Holland there, $1 a round,.....
I tried it, it was nice.
Then I wondered over to the trap area.
I had the choice of several shotguns, from a number of makers,.........
But after shouldering a few, only one snapped right up, and was on point every time.
It was a Browning Superposed.
I went to the 16 yard line,.... like magic, never missed
moved back,..... never missed, moved back again,.... again, never missed
I moved "off the field", behind the last trap line, the crowd moved back as well,...
never missed, backed up to the short pole fence for the parking lot, sat on the
fence,..... and still never missed a one.
I never forget that day, not if I live to be a thousand.
The Superposed "fits me", I throw it up,.... it's dead in line and dead on point.
That day was at "Renton Fish and Game" in Renton, Washington.
I just looked, they'er still there.

It's changed, now there's a chain link fence there now,...
Back then, it was a short ranch style pole fence.
Because the parking lot ends there.
Now what I need honestly is a Superposed in 20 ga.
For upland game birds.
For ducks, I have an 870 and I'm fast with it.
Mossberg took the lead years ago, military, police, and in the field.
They are super durable, and there is a cool marine version.
It's fun to talk about fond old memories, thanks guys for sitting still for that.
