Thanks so much for putting this thread up. I have been looking for one of these for a couple years - no one makes one new to be sold in this country as far as I can tell. I got an e-brochure today and am ordering one in the AM: pistol grip, beavertail, double triggers and one of the wood upgrades to be decided after talking with the folks at CSMC. Not getting assisted opening as not many successful third shots where I hunt. I love pretty wood but this gun will be a shooter, so I'm not sure what to do about that. Any thoughts on that?
BTW, the answer I received to my question indicated the barrels will NOT interchange with the RBL (I was thinking of buying one of the available RBLs to use in sporting clays now and ordering a set of rifled barrels). No ETA on delivery.
I bet they sell a lot (but I'm usually wrong on this stuff). Lots of shotgun only places and it would be a fun hog gun too. I may actually gun hunt next year here in Ohio (although I'm guessing I won't have it by then). I usually bowhunt through the entire season but I'm excited to get this thing.
