In reference to Gary’s post below I’ll tell you how I spent mine. I was belted into a Huey helicopter sitting on the floor with my feet on the skids, with a Remington 870 outfitted with an extended tube and a boar blaster choke. It’s calving season here in the Texas panhandle and the coyotes are plentiful and can be a real nuisance to the ranchers. A rancher friend of ours lost 4 babies last week which explains our outing. He was pissed. We have 2 pilots, 1 who owns the Huey and the other was a dust-off pilot who flew in Vietnam. We had 6 shooters, 3 per side and 2 of them were cowboys from the ranch and had never been in a helicopter, they are probably still grinning. I promise it’s the most fun you can have with your clothes on. We shot 26 coyotes and 8 hogs, it really was a super Sunday.

Gary, I didn’t get a chance to use one of your guns this trip but I have shot hogs with my long slide 10mm you built for me out of the helicopter.
