Merry Christmas to all our Vintage SxS enthusiasts! And a Happy New Year!

Merry xmas y'all. Hopefully I win the lotto max so I can afford most of what I want lol. However I must admit the gun I've been looking at is new and modern. It's barrels are the wrong way. It has laminate stocks. But it sure is pretty. The new 688 has my attention I can't wait to try one. Then it will be back to regular scheduled sxs guns
 
Thank-you and to all a very Merry Christmas with God's richest blessings for the New Year.

I really don't have much in the way of SxS shotguns other than an SKB M100 20ga and a Webley & Scott 12 bore. The W&S is visiting Chris
Dawe right now spending the holidays on NFLD. Lucky gun. :)


Chris kindly sent some pics a few days ago. He had to reduce the comb to fit to my big (and square) head so that required a refinish. I think we're both pretty happy with the results. 28" bbl with the chokes opened to SK1 and SK2.

Nice work. Is Mr. Dawe British trained or perhaps one of a small number this side of the pond who know their business with fine doubles?
