Pigeon grade superposed back from Arts
 
I have posted this old girl before, she had some blemishes when I got her, but in the last few years, the finish had started to go on it. So I sent it to Art in Missouri and am very happy with what he sent back 6 weeks later.

They reblued the barrels, rebuilt the action, upgrade the breech, repaired a crack in the forearm I didn't know was there, refinished the wood, and as a bonus, regolded the trigger.

Its a pretty tough choice between the pigeon and the pointer for me when I shoot them.

I like the small gauge frame size. The large frame not so much. Had a Pigeon 20/28/.410 skeet set. Hated to see it go, but the man thought it was worth a whole lot of money.

Had the same gun John, loved it but did'nt shoot it that much any more. Ended up trading it to a gent for a 30" VHE 28 on a OO frame. I can live without it.:bigbye:

I'm in the middle of negotiations for very unusual superposed: 30 inch barrels, 1937 production with two triggers, mod and full chokes. I would consider it to be a 80% original condition gun.

As I pretty much already said I likes them all !

However ............................ , I'd really love to have a Midas Grade but then again I'd like a Krieghoff K-32 Super Crown grade as well . I'll most likely never own either LOL's !

We've had one or two double trigger Superposed in the shop for repair and I've seen one at public auction as well as two on internet auctions . I'd like to own a double trigger at some point . But I think before that I'd like another 20 gauge but with 3" chambers . I have a 51 field gun but its only 2 3/4" as well as a 65 skeet gun and again only 2 3/4" . Now with that being said I kinda want a Belgium A-5 20 MAG as well . Can't say I'll ever need 20 gauge 3" shells but I likes having OPTIONS LOL's !

What a difference the new gold plating on the trigger makes too...very nice.

Bill Murphy 02-26-2018 05:19 PM

I have seen many internet forum posts that impolitely comment over the original poster's comments and questions, but this one is the most flagrant violation of internet courtesy that I have seen so far.
