Good input - thanks all.

Hojo - the gun was reproofed in the past 10 years for 1.75 oz, so I think that should handle 1 3/8 Kent TM loads, which is all I would want to shoot.

SKB - thanks for the offer. That figure was a ballpark - I am waiting to hear back from the seller. Depending on that, I may take you up on your kind offer

Ted - you are correct, I have no plans to sell this. This gun appeals to me because it is purpose-built and covers my needs well. But we all know how that goes, so I am trying to get a sanity check. The boxlock true pigeon guns I have seen recently are being offered above the $2500 range, but none of them are built like this gun. Based on some of the comments here, it would seem that there may be some premium attached to who the trade gun maker is (assuming it can be verified).


Such a long, long time to be gone, and a short time to be there.
