My first shotgun to quail hunt with at age 11 was a Mod. 12 in 20 gauge.
It had a 28 in. improved cyl. barrel. My dad bought it for me used for
$40.00.
I'm sorry to say I let my older brother talk me out of the Mod. 12 when
I was 17. He said he would keep it for life, then when the hunting
season was over he traded it for a S&W 38 special and drew some boot.
My oldest brother had dad's Mod. 12 in 12 gauge and he killed 100's of
quail, lots of pheasants and ducks with it. His son, my oldest nephew
has it now.
When I drove an armored car for a couple years the company issued
the drivers Mod. 12's and Mod. 97's with 00 buck. I never felt under
gunned.
