1. The Texas Parks & Wildlife forecast promises a banner year. A wet spring and summer allowed for an estimated population of 10 million white wing and 30 million mourning dove. With the season lengthened by 20 days, hunters will spend a lot more time in the fields with a lot more dove to shoot. Exciting!
2. The #1 reason people get ticketed in the field is because they fail to provide proof of hunter's ed. If you were born on or after September 2, 1971, you must take hunter's ed. YES, your HE number is on your license. NO, that's not sufficient. If you've lost secondary proof of your hunter's ed, visit this site and print off a copy for free.

Over the past few years, we've found ourselves in an over & under shotgun renaissance as more of our customers are switching over from semi-automatics to doubles because they love shooting, collecting, and restoring the old classics. At our shop, we frequently purchase collections chock full of cherry pieces and recently acquired the three choice pieces below!
The Winchester 101 is easily one of the most classic American over & unders. The 101 XTR Waterfowler forend affords a wider grip and is complemented with a finely engraved receiver. 12 ga • 28" • 3" // $1299.99.
As one of Beretta's later 20th century over & unders, this BL-4 features a stock & forend shaped from a gorgeous piece of walnut. Complementing the fine woodwork & checkering is an engraved scroll & leaf pattern on the receiver. 12 ga • 28" • 2.75" // $1299.99.
At the time, the Browning B27 Standard Chasse was the little brother to the Superposed. Manufactured in Belgium at the Fabrique Nationale Herstal, the B27 boasts the premium lineage without the premium price. 12 ga • 28" • 2.75" // $1299.99.
Just in time for dove season, we stocked our shelves with cases of Fiocchi's Game & Target and High Velocity loads for 12-410 gauges. We shoot Fiocchi's shells year after year because we find they cycle and pattern better than other brands. Check out the box and case prices below!
Reserve your shells at (888) 486. 4878!
When servicing Browning A5s for cycling issues, we often find nothing wrong with the gun other than the friction rings are out of order. We dug up an illustration from our personal Gunsmithsonian Library Archives showing you how to set up the friction rings for both 2 3/4" and 3" shells. Take a peek!
