I am a pistol and rifle shooter, just recently started shooting shotguns, I have a Winchester m.12 in 16 ga. and a 20 ga. Ithaca 37, both from the '40's. I just stumbled across a birth year piece, which for me is 1940, a Winchester model 42 pump, .410...I love the lines, the question is, what can I do with a .410 pump? I am new to trap shooting, not good enough to try it there...it is Modified choke, 28" plain barrel. May not be the brightest idea, but hey....it has a certain emotional retro appeal, and there are not all that many 1940 models out there in addition to me...
An alternative for roughly the same money (or a little less) would be a new CZ Ringneck SxS, in 20, or 28, or even .410, I like the workmanship and fit on these, and the Prince of Wales grip, and single trigger, and the LOP feels right...I have been very pleased with my CZ rifles.
I may take up upland bird shooting, but right now, it is just clay birds.
