Thanks Stan. The two on the left are both VHE 28's. A 26" and the 30". That was a fun shoot.

I love my 28s. I have a Savage Milano (FAIR) OU, a FAIR Iside Basic and an old Stoeger Zephyr ( Victor Sarasqueta )

Iside


1961 Stoeger

That 30-inch VH 28-gauge Cabela's Rodgers, AR, put up on GI today sure didn't last long!

Just some hard working 28s, nothing special.
A Grade 1 Ugartechea with 27 " IC/MOD and a Dickinson Estate with 30 in barrels and choke tubes. I carry the Ugartechea more than the Dickinson.

A gun that takes birds constantly is special.

And if you noticed, it certainly looked like someone had blued the frame.

Well the good news is, if it is blued, that's a relatively in expensive fix based on what you paid for it. Otherwise, it looks like a pretty good gun. I already have two 30" 28 gauges, so that's the only reason I passed on it.

I tried to find the original listing but apparently it was taken down as soon as it sold. What were the specs? Asking price? SN? All items of interest for us 28 ga. fanatics!
