Best.

The barrels have been modified to 22" with f-ic chokes. confused: Should one assume it's tubed? Show it to AmigoWill perhaps he can use it in his wild west cowboy show.

Back there at 22" there should be plenty of wall thickness for jug choking - or perhaps they were using one of those brass choke gauges and it is really cylinder and cylinder.

Best,

Mike

Aren't bbl's this short against the law ?

Ken I believe it is 18".

I think its a nice looking gun that would be handy in thick brush as well as the nearest 7-11 store.For cowboys the Stoger 20" with I/C,mod is the better choice as they are much cheaper. The above gun has class and should be only used when wearing a new mask.

I didn't think one could get full constriction out of jug choke. Most of those Soviet MU or MC guns with such "wine cork" boring were skeet guns, no?
There must be an Englishman behing this "....the barrels have been modified....". They are good at saying things like your wife has a lovely round face instead of saying she is fat. She is a wonderful cook instead of saying she is pathetically ugly.
Please note there are shapely women with round faces and pretty ladies that can cook.

I saw an English Hammergun that had been sleeved for sale at an internet gun dealer's site. It described the barrels as monoblocked. No mention of sleeving.

Looks like the gun was built for someone shorter in the arms than normal. I belive for someone in the lower five foot range the stock and barrels probably swing real sweet.Twentyeight inch tubes on that gun might go round forever once the swing was started.

I would rather believe that the barrels are "marked" IC/FULL, but have been hacked off and are now CYL/CYL. Why believe anything posted by somebody who won't even clean a gun before taking sales photos? Not to mention that a Bernardelli "Brescia" is a hammergun. Do you think he just listed the city and doesn't have a clue what he has?
