One has to wonder why Daryl would purchase that beautiful Perazzi MX28 in the first place if he couldn't stand looking at them due to the flared muzzles?
Well the reason I purchased the 28 Perazzi is because it was a good deal and I thought I could live with the flared muzzles. After a while it bothered me so when the gentleman I purchased the gun from told me he a fixed choke MX28 and he would give me what I paid for the flared one it was a no brainer. Some people like chocolate, some like vanilla. Muzzles with even the slightest amount of flare have no appeal to me.

No need to worry, you’ll get over it. Therapy is available. The first step is admitting there’s a problem.

There is no problem here. With all due respect I don't like them so buy all the flared guns you want. We all don't have to like the same things.

You're right, no need to get all worked up about it as what's been said has been in jest. After all, we're all friends here!

I love slightly flared muzzles! Fixed chokes, too!

I see the gunbroker listing price for the "SSC" has been lowered from $8995 to $7995. That's still about $2000 too high. I bought mine (unfired in original box, hard case & cover) for $5700 last November. Granted, the wood is very nice on the gunbroker, but also splinter forearm & double triggers are not a plus to most buyers.

I am of the belief that: splinter forend, long LOP, Double Triggers and great Wood are definitely value adds.

And getting harder to find as collectors sniff out the double trigger guns.

Did all these guns have 3" and steel shot capability? Thanks, Chuck

Every SCC that I've measured and every brochure and article written that I've read say the SCCs have 3" chambers, despite every SCC that I've seen are stamped as having 2 3/4" chambers on the left barrel. Per the manufacturer, the SCC is fine and fully capable of shooting steel shot providing modified or more open choke tubes are installed when shooting steel.

How is yours stamped and what is your gun's chamber length actually measure?
