I just had a 28 ga repro monoblocked from a 26" barrel to a 34" 410 with nice tight chokes.

She patterns extremely well. Nice beavertail, nice weight to the barrels/ etc.

For me she has the potential to develop soul. For others I am sure they would call her some names. To each his own. :)

That would make a great article and give the gun some soul.

Patton or Doc Lehew told me about that gun and I had thought they said it was an original, I'm glad it was a repro !

Did Merrington do the barrels ?
