Agreed Bill, I have the auto safety feature disconnected on any gun I don’t intend to hunt with. Obviously I save the parts just in case the next caretaker of the gun decides he wants the auto safety. For me non auto safety’s and extractors is a plus. Right up there with 15" LOP.

Carl, I have a long barrel beauty in the hopper right now with instructions to remove all safety parts, fill in the slot, and prepare for engraving over the space created. Thanks for the offer.

Kenny, a 12-ga. 28", DT, PG, SPL just showed up...

Thanks Greg....I sent e-mail to buy it....(-: I called but the office was closed. Will get on it in the morning....The gun looks very nice.

I was the first in line...its on the way to ohio...(-: Thanks Greg,,I owe you one!

My pleasure Kenny, happy to have helped out! Now you can return the favor by keeping an eye open for a nice Parker D-grade toplever hammergun for me!

Here's a nice one too.

Several short barrel 12-ga. with DT do come availible.....They are less desirable in that lenth with open choke. If it was a two barrel set 26" and 28" it would be gone! That gun give me sticker shock even with the BTF....SXS ohio...(-:

It seems the seller is a bit confused in how it's choked.:confused:

The thing I don't like about the Sporting Clays gun is the barrels are swelled or fluted (whatever the proper term is) at the muzzle to accommodate the choke tubes. Its a personal thing, but when I sight down the rib and see the blunderbuss look of the barrels I find it most unpleasant. Its too bad they couldn't have put thin wall tubes in those things.
