Let me say that just about the sweetest music to me is when I call, 'pull,' the old gun barks, and the referee in perfect key announces, 'dead'.

John Philip Sousa

Good. Bad. I'm the guy with the gun.

John Moses Browning (1855-1926)

What friends I have, what days I treasure most, what places I think about and smile... They are because shotguns are. Without them, I would have been empty. They have made my life full.

Gene Hill (1928 -1997)
