The "Chinese Double" everyone was talking about a few months ago?

I would think they could have come up with a better name than model 1000-how successful was that one last time out?
Best,
Ted

Sounds like more great news. Another rounded B.L. This one hand engraved!! Wonder if they will be able to keep the price in the under $4,000 range like the RBL. If so they have a good shot at taking some of the RBL and Gold Label market. wonder who the industry veterans are. Wonder where the guns will be made? Sounds like the manufacturing location has already been constructed - anyone know where in the world a new gun facility has been built in recent years?
All good news.

Ah, yes.

The new Super Ten, at 8 1/2 lbs, with the MOI of a quail gun. Right?

NO!!!? Phooey -- well, who cares then? ;~`)

Relax; we're all experts here.

I think a lot of people will be surprised at these guns -- especially the doubles.

I've seen them. Next week I shoot them.

They are made in a brand-new factory in Turkey. The plant was built for S&W.

The internals on the double guns are beautiful.

After I shoot them next week, I'll post a report and photos on http://www.guntalk.com. The following Sunday (I hope) we will have a S&W rep on the radio show.

It takes a lot of guts to build a new factory and create a new line of guns. From what I've seen so far, these are going to be interesting guns.

It's just another Turkish gun with someone else's name on it. Turkish guns are obviously improving. Some day they'll sell well with their own names on them. If S&W was making their own guns in the US it might actually be interesting - perhaps even exciting.

More Turkish crap. S&W brand name means nothing on a long gun. Their last subcontracted shotgun was a stinker.
