Smoothbore Picture Thread. Please Post!

[Skychief]

How about posting a picture of your smoothbore here?

Fowlers, Trade guns, smooth rifles.....call 'em what ya want, but, if they have a smooth bore, let's see some pictures of them!

Old, new, fancy, plain.....it doesn't matter.

Descriptions, likes and dislikes welcome too!

Hope we get a lot of eye candy out of this thread, Skychief.
