A buddy of mine who shoots literally hundreds of ducks a year only hunts with o/u. I went hunting with him and was scared to carry the Citori he handed me. All fancy gold filigree and such. But his comment was 'it's not doing any good in the safe'. I couldn't miss with that gun!

I pack a 20 gauge synergy. I got a smoking deal on a used one. I haven't shot ducks with it yet but it's a really nice o/u that didn't break the bank.
