I have been told by Jack Skues that aprox 50% had DT....If all 3500 28ga guns were bilt that would be 17-1800 guns That tells me folks love their DT repro's!!! I have been collecting DT repro's for several years now and have paid all the money at the time in past deals...but guess what...? I could not replace them for that amount in todays market...(-: Even if I use them for a while they will still would bring back all I paid and some...Great guns, good investments and its something you can hold in your hands other than Gov't paper. Im still looking for 12ga model steel shot spl or sporting clays with PG-DT 14 1/4 pull....and any B grades with DT...thanks all SXS ohio....(-:

I've said it before, but it may be time to say it again. Mr. Skeuse is a hero in the modern gunmaking business. He did what "couldn't be done". Of course, there are other heroes like Steve Lamboy and Tony Galazan, but the Skeuse project was the rare successful venture carried out by someone with no gun background other than emotion about a brand. I am thankful that Skeuse had enough money to carry it through to completion. I only own one Repro, but it is the holy grail. I am only lacking a set of .410 barrels. Maybe the Galazan project will end my search.

I had my 28 refinished a couple of years ago by Jack Haugh. Jack told me some of the repro stocks took stain better than others - that was the only tough part about refinishing them.
