I have a 12 ga with 28" bbls choked IC/Mod that I combined with a BHE set OF bbs choked Q1/Q2 that I think is perfect for anything I want to do. If I add the cost of the gun(3900) plus what I think the bbls would sell for(2000), I get 5900. My A1 Special and my SSC are still unfired and I am not sure they would sell for what I paid. I like them and plan to keep them. I just do not think many younger folk are enamored with SxS guns. Was going to give my grandson an SKS 385 2 bbl set 20/28 ga., but he is not interested. Ticked me off.

That’s a fantastic combination of chokes for the uplands Donovan.
Here’s a pretty nice 12ga choked Q1/Q2 if the configuration suits somebody here. I like the wood on this one, nice match between fore and butt. http://www.cabelas.com/product/parke...r+reproduction |

Well I hope I didn’t play spoiler if you’re working on a deal.
Gun fund is as barren as the saharie desert over here but if it wasn’t, I’d have no qualms over owning that gun whatsoever. Sure are some nice 12’s coming to market as of late and it sure seems that the 12’s are inherently discounted. Some nice deals to be had lately. |

I looked at that gun last week and was tempted. If it had two triggers I am afraid I would be a bit lighter in the wallet.

My daughter's idea of a shotgun is a benelli vinci camo. I'm hoping to get her out pheasant hunting but she shows no interest in the uplands. I don't think she'd be able to look at a sxs and see its beauty. Maybe in time. I hunted a lot with autos and pumps before i discovered that the classic upland shotgun was the only way |
