I used to shoot competitive International Skeet with Bruce Buck, so I can attest that he knows which end the shot comes out. However, his assessment of stock dimensions does not jive with my experience. My straight grip 28 gauge has a 14 5/8 length of pull to the front trigger, which is plenty long for me. Also, the most complaints about drop have been that the stocks are too straight, not too crooked, as Bruce describes. Also, I don't know anyone who has not been able to solve the single trigger problems. If you buy an unfired or lightly used single trigger Repro, understand that you are buying a gun that is either dry inside or has 30 year oil on the inside. Expect that some of these guns will have single trigger problems. Our experience on this subforum is that a good cleaning solves these problems. I think you will get more hard information on Repros on this subforum than from gun reviewers who "once shot a Repro".
