Yes they are. However, one thing to consider if it is important, is that the Classic Doubles usually had much better wood than the Winchester 101s. Time to buy them was when they went out of business. Jacqua's in Ohio was practically giving them away and they had more than a few. Same with the Parker Reproduction when they went out of business. I bought two for around $1700 each.

One of them. I hunted the heck out of it and the case hardening is gone and eventually had it refinished. Picked up an extra set of barrels for this one in 16Gauge. Krieghoff made the extra barrel sets for the Parker Repos.

Skeet 1 and 2: Skeet 2 is what we call today a light mod at 15thou constriction.

Skeet wouldn't be my first choice for Quail or Doves. Doves coming into a roast tree perhaps. Doves on the wing at 30-40 I'd like a Mod.

Wild Quail are a different bird than the stocked ones and move out. Again, skeet wouldn't be a first choice for myself.
