Hornhntr OP 8 point H Joined: Nov 2014 Posts: 1,223 St. Clair	I am looking to buy my son a new shotgun for a wedding gift and having a very hard time finding one that fits the bill. I would rather buy new but might consider a like new used gun. I hit every gun shop I could think of around Bham yesterday with no luck. looking for a 12ga. auto wood/blued in the 600-800 range. I thought maybe some of you might know a shop with a good selection and within a reasonable distance from Bham. I might also consider a O/U but I don't know of any good quality in that price range Thanks

Simmons ought to either have one in stock or be able to get it quickly. Last edited by Colt1917; 08/06/20 02:18 PM. Colt1917
