I also am a fancier of the 28 Ga. .I have owned two OO Framed 28's and one O Framed gun ,I love the look of the OO Framed guns and the feel but don't seem to shoot them as well as the O framed 28's ! One was a VHE which had a straight english stock and splinter forend and weighed an impressive 5 Lb. 4 Oz. and was so light ,I couldn't keep up with my target , EVER !!!!!!! The other was a DHE which weighed 5Lb. 12 Oz. but had 30" Barrels and always seemed to be in my way !!!!! The O Framed gun was a 25" Barreled DH Grade which weighed 6 Lb even and I shot it like a champ but traded it off for a large part of the price for my 410 ! With all this said ,I really like the O Framed 28 Ga. guns ,I always felt like Greg ,wishing it were a OO Frame when I owned it but would like to have it back ! I am contemplating a set of Briley 28 Ga. for either my DH 20 or my GH 20 Dam. gun and keeping some extra cash for my next 20 Gauge !
