Im starting a search for an American-made SxS for pass shooting doves, the occasional ducks and moderate amounts of clay shooting. The Model 21 is high on my list and specifically a 30 barrelled version with a straight stock and BTFE. Id prefer fixed chokes but am not completely opposed to choke tubes. As much as Id like a little engraving, its not likely the budget will support it. As a shooter, originality is not required.

I am new to Model 21s and was hoping for a bit of a crash course from the members. Are there certain eras or serial number ranges to avoid or pursue? Any common issues or repairs to be aware of? What would be the current rate for such a gun? Ive found two in the desired configuration for $5k+/-.

Thanks in advance.
