I always hunted with Dad as a kid. On my 16rh birthday I got a Browning A5 Sweet 16. I had been using a 12 ga Ithaca Fearherlight. A big difference.

I was excited to go dove hunting with the A5. I couldn't hit chit. I didn't get my limit.

Dad knew of my poor shooting so on the way back to the truck he asked to see the A5. We hadn't taken 5 steps when a dove flew in front of us. A LONG way out. Dad raises the gun, pops off a shot, the dove crumples.

Dad hands me back the gun and says "Ain't the gun".
