The trap gun found its way to the back of his gun closet.

Reading that was enough to dissuade me from buying a trap gun.

That story is someone making excuses for lousy shooting. No way, no how does the practice you get on a trap, skeet or sporting clay field go to waste when you are hunting. The more shotgunning you do the better game shot you will become!!! Preiod, end of Story.

As to which gun, I like Browning O/Us for trap, and skeet because that and a Winchester 23 is also what I hunt upland with. They will last for tens of thousands of rounds and are not all that expensive, plus they fit me well.
