Scc
 
Does any one have pictures of the “flared” muzzles on one of these?

I've got two Sporting Clays Classics with consecutive serial numbers. The top one shown below is unfired, the bottom pic is the one I shoot. A few have whined about the flare, I don't even notice it when shooting. Put a straight edge on the pics, can you see the flare?

Yes but not much there really. Thank you for the pictures.

The Sporting Clays Classic is my nominee for the most versatile S x S double gun on the planet . . . it's portability, compactness, modern dimensions, modern steel, 3" chambers, chrome lined bores along with the SCC's choke tubes offering the versatility and capability of firing virtually any 12ga. load available today makes it so. Yes, there have been many that have purchased 2-bbl., 3-bbl. and/or bi-gauge sets citing their versatility, but they all fall short of the SCC on most, if not all, of the advantages that the SCC possesses which is available in one classically designed neat little package.

Does the SCC have the auto safety or manual safety?

The SCC, along with all Repros, left the factory with an automatic safety as a standard feature. But, all can be changed into having a non-automatic safety by simply removing the automatic safety push pin -- which requires removal of the stock.

Here's a pic of a Repro's automatic safety push pin:

On the barrel bottom, how are the chokes indicated? Stamped choke tubes??

The SCC is stamped ISC on the barrel flats which stands for Internal Screw Choke as shown below:

Really nice, Greg, quite a versatile gun, what is the weight of yours?

Greg Baehman 06-09-2022 07:34 AM

Mine weigh 7lbs. 3oz.

I have never seen one of these, and I have no idea the price point, but I think I would lean in this direction instead of a Superbird if I were looking for a dedicated SxS clays gun. Very cool.

David C Porter 06-09-2022 11:18 AM

If others were interested in this one, I just purchased it.

You convinced me, except for the single trigger.

Greg, from the pictures you posted of your two SCCs it appears one of the cases has a wooden holder to store your choke tubes, and the other appears to have the holder built in the case and covered with the green felt liner.

Was one of these the original options original from the factory? My SCC had the choke tubes in a plastic bag, and I have been looking for a choke tube holder that would fit in the space provided in the original gun case.....Thanks...

No, neither the felt-wrapped or the wooden choke tube holders came that way from the factory. Like yours, the SCC's choke tubes left the factory in clear plastic bags wrapped by rubber bands. The felt-wrapped tube holder became soiled from choke tube lube and also became somewhat ratty from usage, so I decided to make them out of 5/4 thick walnut and then friction-fitted each to their respective cases (they are slightly different in size) and used a 7/8" drill bit in a drill press to bore the holes for the tubes and wrench. One case holds 8 tubes plus the two in the gun, the other has five plus two in the gun.

Great work on the choke tube holders.
