Actually saw one of these, for the first time, earlier this week, and got to handle it. Seems like a well done firearm and betting it would make one fine pheasant gun. Guess they are now a collectors item, so priced way out of my league.
Imagine your grave on a windy winter night. You've been dead for 70 years. It's been 50 since a visitor last paused at your tombstone..... Now explain why you're in a pissy mood today.
I had one for awhile and I thought it was a great shotgun, but I guess I'm not a sophisticated shot-gunner as they were dismissed by many who claimed to be. I was offered almost double what I paid for it, so it's gone now.
