Dave/Dean - If you are seeing the "Blunderbuss" when shooting, you're focusing on the wrong thing. I agree that barrel ends like a K80 look "strange", when in the gun rack, but you never see them when shooting.

Sorry... it's just me and no offense intended to anybody but to me those swollen muzzles are just an abberation and I won't own one.

It sounds nuts but that's why I sold mine. It just bugged me. That said the 12 I replaced it with is marvelous. It had a big scratch in the finish so I stripped it (that may bend some noses) and now I like it even better with the oil finish. More heresy - I like the single trigger!
