When I spoke with the Browning historian he indicated that demand for the first Superposed guns was very high, and they were somewhat hard to get in early 1931...

Nothing wrong with double triggers, especially when you've been shooting them a long time...

Best, CSL

Thank you for the fine pictures! I'll bet that gun would be a bang up trap gun today! Just this morning I averaged 23 for three rounds, which is good for me! Something that I've been working on for a few months.

I finally learned where my Parker SBT shoots. Now, if I can only learn to consentrate hard, I'll break'm all.

Do you shoot your old Superposed?
