Manage episode 513875124 series 3669509
In this episode of Northern Wings & Clays Field Notes, Mike Burnett takes listeners deep into one of the most asked—and most misunderstood—questions in the shooting world: What gun should I buy?
This isn’t a typical buyer’s guide. It’s a conversation about purpose, fit, and craftsmanship—why the gun you choose should reflect not just your budget, but your values, your shooting style, and your long-term relationship with the sport.
From field guns to clays, bespoke builds to trusted workhorses, Mike breaks down what really separates a fine firearm from the rest. You’ll learn how balance, stock fit, and intended use all shape the experience behind the trigger—and why buying the right gun the first time can change everything about how you shoot.
Whether you’re a seasoned wingshooter, a weekend clay breaker, or just stepping into the world of fine shotguns, this episode will help you see firearms the way craftsmen and true enthusiasts do: as lifelong companions, not just tools.
