Most people don't consider a 12 ga. a true quail gun, preferring small bore guns, myself included. That may be the reason none exist.(?)

But yet, we see a fair amount of 12ga. Repros w/26" bbls. factory choked Q1/Q2.

The Q1 & Q2 markings were simply a Parker Reproduction contrivance of Skeet Out & Skeet In.

28" 12 gauge open choke Repros are very scarce. I have seen or heard of a very few bored IC and M, but never have seen one bored or marked Q1 and Q2. How many of you own a 12 gauge 28" IC and M?

The Central Wisconsin Winter Skeet League, in which I participate, schedules a 5-Man Team event once per year. About 5 or 6 years ago we fielded a team of shooters all shooting 12-ga. Repros. I was shooting a Sporting Clays Classic model and the other four shooters were shooting their DHE Repros -- all with 28" bbls., 3" chambers, factory choked IC/M, SG, SPL & DT -- none had the SS stamps.

They may be scarce, but they seem plentiful around here.

I had forgotten about the SS Specials which were 28" IC&MOD. I guess the 28" open choke guns are more common than I thought.
