Let's see some pic's of your SxS's & O/U's
- Thread starter Win/64
- Start date
I have the same problem with Beretta O/U's the stocks feel like a fat club to me. But the Browning's feel nice. If I could have a Browning stock with the nice shallow receiver of the Beretta I might have a "B" gun that would work for me. I hope no one suggests a "Cynergy" cause that's like pointing a pig on the end of a shovel. Way to barrel heavy.
Win/64 that Rusky is a beauty! great workamanship in that fine specimin, I wish it were mine, where do you find al these fine treasures?
Rem3200, those Merkles were a great deal, I thought about picking up 1 or 2, but I had just ordered a Merkle Cape gun model 240 in 20ga/9.3x74r! It just came in today, would anyone mind if a friend of mine posted it here? It really isn't a shotgun or a rifle its both!Cheers Dale Z in T-Bay!

Brno ZH103
Another winter project. Always found these Brno's to be a bit of a diamond in the rough and simplicity at it's best. Double triggers but can function as a single trigger by just using the rear trigger twice.
From Trade Ex and knew the finish was flaking but pleasantly surprized by the metal condition. Little ding in the trigger gaurd that I didn't know about and missing the sight bead but can live with and fix the bead.
Presently 30" F/F barrels which will be going to SK/IC and make a very economocal under $400.00 sporting gun.
Soon to be refinished and a pad added.

Nice pair of Merkels. Any idea on weight of each? May not be entirely out of place to add - those will make nice waterfowl guns too.
Tradeex should bring in a variety of sub gauges for a change ......
Doing the rather basic measurement of me on the scale with and without the shotgun both come in at 6.8 lbs. Quite happy with them.
By all means. It's a sporting shotgun with a rifle barrel attached. Would like to see a pic.
I found the "Russian" gun on the ee. It's not very pretty at the moment but eventually it will be getting a full makeover. I would put the quality level of that gun above Krieghoff or Perazzi. These guns start at $6000 and go way up from there.
!2 Ga. Superposed, I've had this gun longer than any other, an all time fave I may never ever sell !
20 Ga. Superposed, an all around sweet handler in the uplands.
>410 Superposed, a real challenge to, but oh so nice to try to run 25 skeet with.
20 Ga BSS Sporter, I like it far more than a 12 ga pistol gripped BSS I had a few years ago and love the english style grip.

Lol, it may seem so. I've been very lucky in acquiring a few of them. The one holding the BSS is actually for a SXS, I found it a few years back in the buy&sell dirt cheap. I got another one when I bought this SKB 600 20 Ga. I had one in 12 ga. but sold it. I think the SKB's of that era were, and still are a very good quality shotgun.
This is the only Shotgun I purchased new. A Caesar Geurini Summit LTD in left hand. My dog VooDoo likes it too !
And one I let get away and miss, Winchester 101 Diamond grade 28 Ga.

Nothing special but I had a chance tonight to take some pics. Beretta model 409 SxS 12 gauge. Bubba got to this one before me. They had the barrels professionally cut down. I am going to get it threaded for chokes. They added a butt pad and replaced one of the screws on the bottom plate (I am hunting for one now.)
Too bad this is a nice gun.

It's hard to tell from the various angles and poor light conditions, but there are 16 and 20 gauges hiding amoung the "full figured" girls here.
I've acquired a few more since this photo was taken.
