Here are a few of my 12 ga pumps. The 37 was a PD trade in from Texas and the Stevens 520 is 1910-1911 vintage.  Love the corncobs!!  https://imgur.com/a/wNrNNKC

RedState requires a minimum $49 membership to read their articles! No thanks!

OK. Thanks for pointing that out, but it's not completely accurate.

I just realized because I took a subscription with Townhall for a year, that's also bought me access to four other websites, including RedState. However, a subscription for those sites is only required to read their 'VIP' articles, and I didn't notice this was one of them. I've posted up a lot of RedState articles that were open to everyone. I'll have to note that going forward. 

I'm not going to copy and paste the article in, but I will at least list the five the author thought were worth it. He went to some length explaining each of his picks. He also posted the Wikipedia references to them.

And one interesting fact:

It has probably not escaped your notice that three of these five guns sprang from the mind of the Leonardo DaVinci of Guns, John Browning. This should come as no surprise to anyone who has 1) read any of my comments on guns in general, or B) knows anything about John Browning and his influence on gun-making in the 20^th century.

The author concludes:

At present, I only own two of the five guns on this list, and have handled and fired two others (the 1897 Winchester and the Model 21 Winchester). There are still more spaces in the gun safe, although the two doubles here may be out of my price range.

I owned a 97 and auto 5

Those are long gone.

Still have a police model 37. That is going with me!
