The best single shot shotgun is...

T O'Hier ,
The Cooey 84 /840 were sold in the US as Winchester 37A and 370 .
The Winchester 37 had one advantage over the Cooey in that the hammer and latch were reversed so that you don't have to reach over the latch to thumb the hammer .
My turkey gun has been an 840 shortened to 28" and tubed with a Limbsaver pad added .

The quandary is that an Ithaca 37 weighs 2 shells more .

For the money I'll take a BT-99. Trap only. Certainly not for hunting with no safety.

No safety, no problem, just carry it broken open 'til you need to shoot, the way you shoot at the trap field.
