As I recall Nikko also built the Golden Eagle Rifles and Shotguns. High Standard also imported some of their shotguns in the early 1980's. Quality is very good. They are a Winchester 101 clone in many ways. My friend has a Nikko Shadow Deluxe, which might have the widest rib I've ever seen on a sporting shotgun. Looks like you could land a fighter jet on that rib. He shoots it well and it has taken probably 500 grouse in its lifetime although it is ungodly heavy IMO.
