It is just a terrible gun. End of story. Thanks, tudurgs, for your comment. Tony sold the last 30" 28 gauge gun that he had in stock at the Fall Southern Side by Side. He won't be making any more. The buyer showed great restraint in turning down ridiculous offers for his gun after he had paid for it. Tony still has a few 28" guns available. Maybe I can score one of those before they are gone.
