Pros - As New, unmolested, RKLT, 30", solid rib, no ports, 7lb 4 oz, slim fore end, understated A-1 engraving, perfect fit.

Cons - Patterns like a rifle. Full(.038) / IMod(.026)

At Skeet distances (22 yards) I shot and circled the Full pattern and shot the IMod directly over the Full. AA 1 1/8 9 shot.
I managed to hit a 23 and a 21 on a windy SoCal day.

Centered breaks were absolutely pulverized.
The visual was worth the misses.

As high as it shoots, looks more like a trap gun than skeet.

Bob, I thought this was a for sale ad. I had the check about written, waiting for the amount.

C’mon Mr. Davis,
Aren’t they really all Skeet Guns?

That is one sweet gun. Does seem to print like a trap gun and what a pattern....

It sure would look good next to my boxed A-1 20 gauge. The A-1 Supers make the American version of the Grade 1 look like a mistake.

S-8, is that 1968? My A-1 20 was made in 1953.

A friend has a Euro-sourced D3 which appears to be substantially lighter than US market guns. Barrels are light. Thin walled which would not accept choke tubes. Wonderful gun.
