G'day folks, I've found two nice sxs 12g shotguns and would like some opinions.
Firstly the JV Needham is a Challenger 2 nitro proof 2-3/4. Very nice timber, prince of Wales grip, locks up nice and tight. Nice feeling gun if not a tad on the heavy side. Fore end is a little loose, but overall it's in very good nick for a gun it's age. I understand that these later Needhams where manufactured by Greener?
Second is an SKB100. It's kinda the polar opposite to the old English girl but it appeals to me. Condition is very good, it's a little lighter than the Needham, wood is plainer, but it has a single trigger which I think could go in it's favour as both my other guns are single trigger.
More of a utility gun than the Needham but it comes up nice (maybe even better than the Needham) and fits me nice. It's also a couple of hundred cheaper.
Thoughts please?
Cheers, Scott.
