RK,
In order;
1. We could discuss that first shot over coffee, Irish, cigars,etc for at least an hour, but with all the mitigating factors, I am delighted to even be in the bullseye!
2. Yes, on the sighting-in sequence and that is next now the barrel break-in is complete.
3. Thank you for the review of the Simson gun history. I would like to know the year of manufacture; can you suggest a Simson gun serial number database to query?
4. The action is as tight now as my Parker reproductions were when new, so it appears to be well made and long lasting.
