The Browning Hump Backs are a very fine shotgun. I have one that I will never sell. I will give it to some lucky person also someday. They auto lights are great dove and quail guns. I would keep it in the family if I was you.

- Interests:I am into foraging of all kinds. Hunting for game is just one aspect. Every time I am out in the back country I am looking for edible, useful and medicinal flora and fauna. I am also constantly working on survival skills. Hunted as a boy for squirrel, rabbit and some upland birds. I am a farmer by trade and I work for an organic farm founded on ethical work practices.

What you should really do is PM me and sell it for a good price!! I have a 16ga that I grew up hunting with that I wouldn't trade for the world. It is the best fitting shotgun I have ever found and quite sentimental. I am currently looking for a 12 ga light for some quail and chuckar busting. I love the 16ga so much I only want to use it for a nice day of dove or pheasant. Enjoy that thing!
