It is called the "Silver Reserve" wondering if anyone has had the chance to shoot/inspect one. I would also be interested to find out where they are made.
EG
"It might be gone when you get here, but basically it's a green, '64 Chevy, driving West down Maine Street. No, I can't make out the licence plate, but ...errrr... it'll be pulling a small church. So any Green Chevy pulling a church down Main Street, I guess that'll be the one."

I saw and handled one of these at the NRA Convention in Houston last month. The 28 GA that my daughter picked up was so nice that we nearly bought it. Turkish origin if I remember correctly.
Nice work, great balance with an MSR at $600.00 the person working the booth strongly suggested that we check local dealers as the street price of the gun we were looking at would be about $500.00---499.99.
Academy Sports has a very simlar gun, only in 12 ga so far, which seems to be from the same source--the 12s are under $500 in Houston.

I handled one yesterday at BassPro. I am no expert but it seems to be a pretty well put together shotgun. I was impressed. The sales guy said they were made in America....kinda doubt that with the $550 price tag. My guess is turkey or russia.

I handled 3 yesterday. A 12, 20, and 28. They look alot like the old Mossberg O/U. Quite nice for the price, $465. I also was thinking about the 28. I knew nothing about them untill yesterday.

i have 2 buddies shooting them in 12 ga and while they arent citoris or 600 series berettas they are very nice guns and IMHO there is no real competition for them at that price point

Too heavy in the 20 and 28 Ga. An iron works though and seem like they are a lot of gun for the money.

If I remember correctly, they are being made by Khan in Turkey. Having seend and handles a few Khan's at Gander Mountain, for the money it's a very nice gun on par or possibly a little better than others in the same price range (Stoeger, Yildiz, etc.)
As long as there's still lead in the air, there's still hope!
