H&R Single shot 12 gauge short barrel
I just cut the barrel on a H&R Pardner and took a few pics. I picked this gun up specifically for shortening as I just couldnt bring myself to cutting my recent double barrel acquisition. I have no real practical use for it but with practice it could be a viable HD shottie.

They're built like a tank aren't they?
Re: H&R Single shot 12 gauge short barrel
I used to have a Sears & Roebuck 20 gauge. It was manufactured in the 60's, and certainly "built like a tank," as someone else appropriately put it. LOVED that shotgun... Had it since I was 8. It was a single shot with a 3 inch chamber. However, I hardly ever used 3 inch cartridges in it because 3 inch 20 gauge rounds are difficult to find. I only ever found one box, and I used it up in a day.
About 3 or four years ago, I realized that it had fallen out of use, and was really only taking up space. I felt bad, that this great gun I grew up with was just collecting dust, so I put it up on the "pay it forward" thread and gave it to a member here who wanted it for his... Son? Daughter? I can't remember at the moment, but I feel better knowing my old shotty is at least in the hands of someone who will use and enjoy it.
