VH 28

[Dean Romig]

For Fred Lowe and other interested parties re: the Cabela's VH 28 ga. that was the gun of interest in starting this thread...

I dropped into Cabela's in Scarborough, ME on Friday evening specifically to examine this gun and as I walked into the Gun Library I spied Scott, Bill and Pete making a deal on a trap gun. We chatted a bit and then I took out the VH 28 and found it to be nothing more than a restocked and refinished gun, probably redone a while back. It is made on a 00-frame, has 26" barrels and extractors and in my opinion a buttplate introduced a bit later than this gun was made, i.e., no spur. It is a decent gun but the price Cabela's is asking is ionospheric in my opinion.

Dean,Would you care to describe....ionospheric? Is that really a word?

[C.O.B.]

If someone is in the mkt for a nice 28 (NO Dave S not mine) Chuck Brunner at Greens guns has a VHE and I believe there is a nice VH at CSM. Both are very nice and a lot less $$$ than the Cabelas gun.

Hey Dean!

A great set of "eyes" - thanks!! As well - while you were there,did you see this GH listed for $4,000? I'd be interested in the collective thoughts of the forum members, as I have a few GHs and..???..??!
