I’ve kinda come To the conclusion if I’m able to get a shotgun to the Philippines I’m better of taking a K-80 over the VH 12 2 barrel set and a Fox pin gun . Just from the parts aspect alone . They’ve got decent mechanic gunsmiths meaning replace readily available parts but if a Parker or aFox broke over there I’m afraid I’d be down for the count .

If you are worrying about your gun breaking then sell the K80, the Parker and the Fox and buy a Perazzi on the MX8 platform. If it ever breaks you can service it yourself.

Almost forty years ago I wanted a Perazzi as I was shooting a 3200 . But when I made the trip to Allem’s Gunworks in Zionsville PA I picked up and tried the feel of a Perazzi MX-8 , a K-32 , a K-80 and a like new Remington 3200 1 of 1000 . All were new except the 3200 . The K guns felt the best and pretty close to the feel of the old 3200 I was used to shooting . The new K-32 with Kolar tubes and Americase was several thousand less than the K-80 set up the same . So the K-32 it was , without a doubt I shot that gun better then any other shotgun I’ve ever owned . And the fact that I had it stocked high and just switched barrels to shoot skeet or trap made it even better . The feel was always the same . While I’m sure a spaghetti gun would be fine I think I’ll stick with a kraut gun
