Don, thanks for the information. Is the manual safety also something that was different? I haven't seen many to look at and compare. I had this gun ordered when I was in the service in Germany and the man who ran the Rod and Gun Club ordered it right from Japan, I just told him I wanted a 20 ga. with 26" barrels imp.cyl/mod. Came through with a gorgeous piece of wood and the not so nice polyurethane finish.
