Not following on the "cowbell" reference tonight. My back is killing me and I'm self-medicating with stiff drink of some Hudson Baby Bourbon (100% corn, first bourbon I've had in a very long time. Great analgesic!). I own and use a Dickinson Estate I purchased from Cabela's last May. It's the .410 action with the 28-gauge 2nd set of tubes. I agree that it is alot of gun for the money but the triggers can be a problem. See below....
PICSO did a good job on the triggers and they have held steady at ~ 3 3/4 and 4 1/4 for some time now (I asked for 3 and 3 1/2). For a 5 1/4 pound gun that is acceptable. Not perfect, but not bad.
Ted refers to this as my "Muslim" gun.....
I've got something like $1,500 in it (I did have some trade bait). Once you get the triggers corrected (if such a correction is needed) they are IMHO, an exceptional value. Seem to work OK on grouse....
The choke tubes are all over the place (measured them at work, the .410 tubes are fixed chokes). I think I settled on IC and IM.
