In doing an internet search trying to find out which came first, Q1/Q2 or SK 1/SK 2, I came upon this four page letter that Jim Rikhoff of the National Sporting Fraternity Limited sent in 1987 to its membership. This letter announces among other things the availabilty of NSFL 28-ga. and 12-ga. NSFL Repros and that the 20-ga. NSFL Repros had already sold out of their run of 100 guns. Rikhoff mentioned he had been working with the Skeuse's for close to a couple of years prior to the date of the letter. So, one can assume it was probably 1985 when the first 20-ga. NSFL Repros were in member's hands. On pg. 4 of this thread I posted pics of NSFL 20-1 choked SKEET 1/SKEET 2, obviously these 20s w/Skeet chokes came prior to the 28-ga. guns . . . but were they offered before or after the Q1/Q2 choked twenties? The investigation continues...
