I prefer a straight grip as well. I think there are fewer of them around but how much additional value they bring is speculative. There is nothing faster in the uplands than a straight grip small bore.

I agree with Rich, nothing points quicker than a straight grip although I prefer the PG for clay targets. Since we veered off a little on barrel lengths I will add that to my eye long barrels just look better period with no regard to stock configuration.

This DHE was apparently manufactured in 1903. It is a 12 gauge with 30 inch barrels. 7.6 pounds. I don't have a research letter yet.
