The single shot I need but don't have

I really like my 20ga/.22 Savage 24 series S. Why not have a .22 on top of the shotgun?

How rare are the Cooey 84's in 28 ga. What would be a fair value? I have one in very good condition and am thinking of selling. Local guy might be interested.

In top notch condition, a Model 84 in 28 gauge would go for $300.00.Lesser condition guns for less.A Model 84 in other gauges in top notch condition usually go for around $150.00 or less.
 
37 has the hammer below opening lever, 84/840 is above. Wouldn't matter to me, just a note of interest.

Yes you are right on that account.
I fired my first round of 12 gauge though a 220 and knocked down many a duck and grouse with the same.
Would I ever pass one one to a new shooter?
No!

They are well enough built gun with one major flaw involving the tang safety.
Engage the safety and pull the trigger with safety engaged and nothing happens.....all good so far right?
Dis-engage safety with no trigger contact and the gun will discharge, or at least it will with the one I owned.

An exposed hammer Cooey or Winchester is by far a better way to start for a new shooter and to pass on to next generations.
Just a heads up and stay safe.
 
I agree with FreedomIsn'tFree, you can't go wrong with a Savage 24. Sometimes a .22 is all you need. It's nice having the option on the same gun.
 
I've owned more single shots than I care to remember , they all have their good points , but I'd take an older cccp produced Baikal IJ18 over all of them . They're a very well built gun . Nothing wrong with Cooeys , Savages or the rest , but the Baikal have some really good features for the money . That being said , I'm currently without a single shot . Guess I'm going shopping .
 
Henry Single Shot, you can get them in 12, 20, and .410. Very high quality, absolutely zero plastic anywhere on it. I have the 12 gauge with the steel receiver (you can also get brass). Have had it for a year now and shot tons of clays and birds with it. It also takes Remchokes, which is awesome.

Lol..I know. I just mentioned the combo gun because he asked about bird hunting. Shotguns are definitely what you want to use if they're fly by, but some birds like to just sit still.. I'm sure everyone has see a quail sitting on a fence post or a duck paddling around. I think if you shot a stationary bird with a shotgun, you'd mangle it. That's when a .22 would be nice. :p

A .22 on a duck?

A .22 on anything but a grouse?

Ahhh...that's why the face palm. I don't actually hunt birds. I'm not familiar with the regs, I just thought having a .22 on your shotgun would be a good option, but if it's illegal then I guess don't use it.
