Connecticut Shotgun Dominates in Vintage Cup and Orvis Cup

Vintage Gunners Cup Winner

Congratulations to Charles DeVinne for once again proving himself as one of the best during The 24th Annual Vintage Gunners Cup in Friendsville, Pennsylvania. DeVinne, who has been competing in Clay Targets for 30 years, had huge success in the American Classics Hammerless Events winning 8 medals in the 2022 Vintage Cup, 5 of those having won with Connecticut Shotguns’ Model 21 and RBL.

Devinne states that some of the features he looks for when choosing the right shotgun for competing are "a good point of impact and pattern, a very reliable trigger and overall functioning".

The round-action SxS RBL is the ultimate shotgun for upland, sporting clays, target & live pigeons. RBL shotguns are made by the Master Gunsmiths at Connecticut Shotgun and feature a true Anson & Deeley action with a Purdey type double bite lockup and Southgate ejector system. These shotguns are world-renowned for their craftsmanship, workmanship, and reliability.
