Hopefully we can get more 8ga events at the SxS shoots.

It looks like a good honest gun.
I’m going to call you tommorrow if I don’t forget and discuss the pad installation on the original base . I also need a spring for the forend on the this one and a top lever spring for a VH 1 1/2 or 2 frame I forget which size that gun happens to be .

Craig I plan to be at Stanford this year. A five stand 8 ga gatherings would be a highlight of my trip.

Wow, 7 lb., 12 oz. barrels……. My entire 2-frame 12/30 DH turkey gun weighs exactly 7 lbs., 12 ounces…

This thing is a breath of fresh air compared to the one I got in Easton a few weeks ago . That one had 10 or 11 pound barrels .

Craig you're spot on about being able to look at a picture and going yep thats a 6 frame haha. My 10 gauge barrels are pretty chunky at 8lbs 4oz the MWT on them is .071/.070. Being left handed the 6 frame is actually too beefy for me to operate the top lever while keeping my hand on the grip so I have to hold the stock under my arm while I open it.
