Great gun in what many would consider the ideal configuration. I wonder, however; why the seller would omit how it's choked, as well as its dimensions?

What would be your ideal chokes for a 28ga. Repro w/26" bbls.? Would it be Q1/Q2 or IC/M? Which do you believe will appreciate the most over time?

I think the chokes of the 26" barrels are of no consequence concerning future value. The value of single barrel 26" guns will remain stagnant and 28" guns will continue to appreciate, with double trigger 28" guns leading the pack. This will be no news to those following this interesting market.

It's a grouse gun that costs too much and has the wrong stock on it. If I could find a simple VH 28g with 26" barrels and pistol grip, even with a lot of honest wear, I'm all over it instead of this. This is a three legged dog. Cute, but nobody wants it.

If you don't like it, just move on. I'm sure others would love to have it.
