I am hopefully a month or two away from receiving a new Spanish 20 gauge (Armas Zubillaga) that I ordered a year ago.

Wow! Dave, the stock on that Garbi is gorgeous!!! I can't wait to see your Zubillaga... I've been thinking of one since you sent me the link... it expect it will be even more bespoke.

Working guns 12ga French Manufrance late model Robust. Swedish Husqvarna Model 52 12ga Suhl built Drilling 16x16x6.5x58R Sauer set up for coyotes 1 oz. NP BB's work great.
After the first shot the rest are just noise.

erich,
Where are you at in WA state? Assuming East side based on the yote. I recently bought a Manufrance but not a Robust... I really dig it and need to get pictures up. Wondering if anyone knows where I can get the old inertia reels that were any many of these for slings? I should probably start a separate thread for that.

Funny you should ask about the retractable sling, I have an extra one here but already have a deal going on to sell it. If it falls through I'll contact you.
Did you get an Ideal? I picked up Costo-Super, it is an Ideal with Robust style barrels made by Manufrance to be sold in gun shops not out of the MF catalog.

Erich,
Yeah its a Manufrance Ideal. I happen to think its a really neat shotgun. If your deal falls through on the sling, please let me know, I am going to have this gun cleaned up and restocked soon and would like to put an original back in.

Just for fun, I added an old school Cutts to my 20ga. I think it's badazz. DMc

Living in an area that is shotgun only had me wanting something that would keep me from driving 3 hours to the rifle zones. My new RBL Professional 20 gauge SXS slug gun is going to be a lot of fun to use this season.

Very nice!!!! Have followed them since they were introduced. Have you shot it yet for accuracy? Wondering if real life lives up to advertising.
Recoil?

I have not had the chance to shoot it yet.
The guy that owned it got good accuracy but was a bit recoil shy at age 75. I was told he shot it less than 20 times over the years he had it. We had a nasty winter and I just have not had the time.
Hopefullly in the next few weeks I will get out there. Contrary to CSMC's recommendation, I was told that this guy regulated it with Federal not Remington or Winchester sabots. But we shall see.

Wow! Great wood! I actually have a stock blank that I bought from a seller in Turkey that looks a LOT like that. Can't wait to use it!
