I was thinking of getting a Parker Reproduction 28-gauge, but then I handled the Model 23 Classic in 28-gauge at the April 1986 NRA Convention in New Orleans, and ended up getting those in 28-gauge and .410-bore.
I will say the Model 23's single trigger isn't as crisp as I would like. Doesn't bother me if they are the first gun I shoot in a day, but if I've been shooting something with a nice crisp trigger and then go to one of my Model 23s it is noticeable. Nothing one would ever notice shooting at game.
