The Essex Hunter Posted November 13, 2011 Report Share Posted November 13, 2011 A follow up picture from the Busy Boy post I made last week, the gun was a Thomas Wild 32 inch magnum, full choke on both barrels. I was a tiny tot; the dogs are buried in the garden and thankfully still got my Dad. I guess the shooting influence started a long while ago.......

Kes Posted November 13, 2011 Report Share Posted November 13, 2011 Thomas Wild 32 inch magnum, full choke on both barrels!! TEH Not that one; the one on the chair to your left, (on the right as you look at the picture), looks like a toy gun for you ? Wouldnt mind a go with the Thomas Wild though - A proper fowling piece.

Blunderbuss Posted November 13, 2011 Report Share Posted November 13, 2011 (edited) Cracking picture. Do you or your dad still have the Thomas Wild? Edited November 13, 2011 by Blunderbuss Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Essex Hunter Posted November 13, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 13, 2011 Cracking picture. Do you or your dad still have the Thomas Wild? Sold it to a mate who is right handed, the stock would have never stood a left cast to suite me! And Dad at 85 is down to a 410 these days....
