Yes- it is made in Brazil- like all O/U's I have ever handled, it feels like a 2x4 in my hands, on edge-- But I tried the trigger with snap caps, it is mechanical, about 5 lbs. on my spring gauge- like many "lower tiered" trade-ins, with choke tubes, only the two that are in it come in the deal ($325.00 out-the-door) bottom tube mikes IC on my Galazan gauge, top barrel reads full- the test will be when I go back, to see if both tubes will thread off, and if the threads both on the barrel(s) id(s) and those on the tubes OD's are not boogered. I'll save my Smiths for live birdies- barn pigeons, tower pheasants- etc. I want a "beater" that if someone steals it from the gun racks by the clubhouse, while I'm in doing what DU Sponsors do, I'm not out a finer gun, and the insurance hassles-I can afford to lose $325- although I don't wish to. My Smiths would be very hard to replace today-- RWTF
