Best of luck to you with it. I hope you bond well. I think you may well find that you shoot better with a single. I have found that to be the case using an American made trap gun for birds. Please report back on your experiences with it from time to time. It will likely be shooting birds much sooner for you than it would have had I won the auction. That would've probably been a six month process at best, as I understand it. But, I'll be looking for another nice single in future sales and auctions. My usages would be for doves ........ maybe even ducks and turkey. There was one characteristic of the Morrow I would have had to rectify had I won it. The drops were measured at Holt's at 1 1/2" DAC and 1 7/16" DAH. I could not have shot that as it is. Are they actually that, pedder, or did Holt's make a typo in what they sent me?
I have handled a fair number of these quality singles and they puzzle me. Obviously they're too good for the role of normal (ie cheap) single shots. They seem to have been well looked after, that and the 2 1/2 chamber do not indicate wild fowling. Makes me wonder about who ordered and how they used these guns.
Me too, Sl. Have wondered about that for a long time.
