Wild Skies,
Budget; I would like to keep it under $10k; might go $15k for the right gun. I’ll use it for bird shooting; driven days in England, Doves, Chukar, Quail, Pheasant in Ca, Az, Baja. I hunt ducks too but not with this gun.
I’d like a nice gun but one that wouldn’t break my heart if it was lost or damaged when traveling by air.
I like a pistol grip and double triggers. I need a LOP of 15.5in. This B grade gun has a LOP of 14.5. My other doubles measure about 14.5 to the rear trigger. My thought was to have double triggers installed which adds about 3/4 in. With a lace up pad it would be just about right. I do understand it would cost around $1200 to install the triggers, modify the trigger plate and case color.
I really don’t care about the second set of barrels.
A SCS would work very well for me - but I don’t see any for sale just now!
All the best;
Brett
