Winging clays...

Matt G throws a bird for Ambulance Driver.
While he's using an 887 in that picture, AD had also brought along a well-worn 870 that was a delight just to watch him run. I've got a picture somewhere in this mess where the ejected shell is hanging in the air, still in the same plane as the ejection port, and he's already got the slide forward. Thing looked like it had been shot enough that it was slicker than owl snot.

Isn't that one of those "law enforcement style" shotguns used by mass murderers?

AD is a rockstar at busting clays.

I love an 870. Everyone chides me that I should get a better (read: semi-automatic) shotgun. But holding an 870, it's just an extension of my body as opposed to an inanimate tool.

(Of course I still use a an old Stevens SxS for duck hunting.)

AD is one of the best 870 guys I've ever seen. It also confirms a pet bias of mine that waterfowlers and upland hunters that use a pump can shame the tactical folks in their use.

I'll confirm what Spear says-- AD is superb with that 870, but for some reason, he doesn't care much for that nifty 887 of his. Hell, I'll take it off his hands.

FWIW, he was smoking them neatly with my M1100, as well.

If you ever get the chance to go shooting with Ambulance Driver, take him up on it. He's a really great guy, who's generous with his time and resources, and tells an excellent dirty story for all occasions.

I swear it looks like Matt G. is doing a mating dance.
