Long Barrels
Were Repro 12 gauges ever made with longer than 28" barrels?
Looking for at least 30", or longer.
My grown-up son shot his first 25 straight at Trap with an Ithaca NID 12, with 30" barrels, and standard field specs....He does good without the scant drop at heel, and comb of modern Trap guns.
Too bad the NID barrels split from the muzzle back 18 inches. Seems they left the factory way back in 1926 or so, without much solder on the ribs, and tubes.
Gunter Pfrommer resoldered them; but we never trusted them after that, and sold the gun to a pheasant hunter.We want to find a Repro 12, and try that.
Thanks, Grant.
