The Japanese mfg repros are good guns. IMO, for what they bring at auction they are a real deal, especially the 28s. They are about the only way to buy a 28 ga M-12 on anything resembling a budget. Better yet, repro 28s actually work.......(non-conversion 28 ga pre-64s are frequently not so slick).

Repros are excellent candidates for choke tubes. The repro disconnector bothers some, not others. Repro M-12s (Browning or Winchester marketed) typically have lousy trigger pull weight and travel. It can be corrected. I don't care for the Browning-type curved buttplate. That can be changed.

Repro 42s have very nice triggers.
