Got limits out on the Katy prairie Saturday morning... Great hunt, great fellowship and great eats after the hunt... we made dove ka-bobs with onions, peppers, bacon, etc... Our host's wife made a big ol pot of beans... we ate like kings!!
My hunt was almost over before it got started... I was using my BPS .410 bore and shot my first bird with the first shot... pumped the action and tried to shoot that bird's buddy... gun wouldn't shoot!! Don't have a clue how, but the nut that holds the forearm to the slide assembly had come completely unscrewed and was lost!! I took the gun apart while doves were dive-bombing our Mo-Jo's and just put the slide assembly back on without the forearm... I was back in business!! Sure was surprising how much not having a forearm on the gun messed up with mounting and shooting the gun... I got it sorted out, but never got comfortable with it...
NOTE: The pics with me and my buddy looks bad as it looks like I'm pointing the gun right at his head... he was behind me a lot. It's just a bad camera angle...
