      <content:encoded><![CDATA[The requirements to be called vintage are a &quot;moving target&quot; depending on the item. Furniture: 50-100 years (older than 100 is an antique). Clothing: anything older than 20. I&#039;ve seen literature that state vintage guns are those produced prior to 1898. Some vintage shoots only require SxS/pump field models to qualify.<br />
<br />
The reason I ask...I own a &quot;51 Superposed (older than me!) and a &#039;67 Superposed. No longer widely manufactured but available as a custom. Does that qualify them as being vintage?...<br />

Shot my dad&#039;s semi-auto 16 gauge about 50 years ago.  Remember it has a knob at the end of barrel to adjust choke.<br />
<br />
Gal that invited me says to get an under/over or semi-auto 12 gauge and bring steel shot.  Was at Dicks yesterday, the sales boy was not helpful, saw Beretta&#039;s for $700.  Could not find steel shot on the shelf, nothing was marked...<br />

I have a Browning Medalist that came with only one mag and I was wondering if any of the mags for Browning&#039;s other target pistols such as the Buck Mark would fit the medalist. Does anyone have any experience with this? Thanks.]]></content:encoded>

Most on their dime, but many out of my pocket.  I inherited my father&#039;s guns when he died.

      <content:encoded><![CDATA[I shoot sporting clays and 5 stand every week.  I always use one of my A5s.  Over the years I have read a bunch about the recoil of A5s- some saying they are known for a punishing recoil, other claim an A5 is quite bearable.  If a person spends 5 minutes investigating how an A5 works, and it supposed to be set up (in regards to the recoil system), the vast majority of the excessive  recoil complaints are due to an improperly set spring/friction ring.<br />
      It&#039;s not rocket surgery.  <br />

Shotgun chokes were designed to control pattern diameters at different yards. What is a pattern? It is just the grouping of the pellets at a given yardage. This grouping or pattern is measured by a circle diameter. This particular circle must have certain efficiency. In other words, it has to have a certain number of pellets in a given area (called distribution) for it to be labeled an efficient pattern....<br />
