Every now and then a quail will land in a tree and not come down. Not very sporting, but if the purpose of the hunt is meat on the table, take the quail with the hand gun. I've done that more than once with a 29-2 loaded with bird shot. Maybe Congressman King was a quail hunter. That is a very distinctive gun.

How many chokes come with the gun?
