Regardless, it's a very nice gun and will serve the new owner well. ~snip~

You're right on the case being intended for a 12-ga., the 28-ga Repro's barrels appear lost in the barrel compartments.

I'm not so sure of your second point . . . This 28-ga. Repro appeared to it being hawked right here on this site by the new buyer within 5 minutes of the close of the auction.

Your move, Gerry.

It's a small world we live in.

I believe you are referring to Ian's post. No, he was not "hawking" the GB gun. He was not the winning bidder.
