Hi guys last month I bought a brand new in the box Remington SPR-210 SxS in 20ga. that was made by baikal between 2004 and 2008..
I Know you guys are not really fan of those guns but I take the chance to put a positive review on it.. The SPR-210 and Baikal IZH-43 ( both are the same shotgun)
First the gun Isn't by far the most beautiful gun on the market.
the fit between the block( were the mecanism is) and the stock could have been more precise. The blue on the barrel seem to be transparent when we put the gun in the sun we see the rough prep of the barrel before blueing.
Now for the functionnality. The gun is tight and pretty hard to open for the first 50 rounds but now it open more easyly. The mecanism is as simple as it could be. And have to be cleane before the first use because they seem to use a sticky oil on it what could mean to fail under low temperature and could even lead to misfire or double fire.. But a bit of Remington Action cleaner and your favorite oil on it and you are right..
The sinlge stage trigger is crisp and have no slack in it. you have the barrel selector right on the trigger and is as simple as LEFT or Right..
The ejectors work flawlessly If you fire only one barrel and break-open the gun only the fired one will eject. only thing on the ejector is that the springs seems to be hard and you need add a little strenght to close the the shotgun..
As far as I'm not a begginer but not a pro.. The gun shoot really well. See the clay, point the clay, pass it and shoot. For my part the fit is really good the lenght of pull perfect where it need to be.. And when I take it to my shoulder eyes closed When I open the eyes the barrel is at the exact place my eye in front of the bead So I consider it to be a good fit.
I shot a 100 rounds by now and a good result with it
For my part this gun will not be a competition gun but for a upland shotgun that will meet mud and everything that upland hunt can offer this gun is perfect. And at 6 3/4 lbs it will be perfect for long run.
