I have a couple nice OU's that I shoot well. None put a smile on my face like my Ithaca 5E, which I shoot equally well. I have no problem shooting the 5E in an open event.
It's definitely an in your face, modern styled gun. Not for everyone. I'm looking forward to trying one once they make it to the public. Would I buy one? I don't know. The styling is definitely a hurdle to get past. Might be a good option for those who want to shoot 10k rounds a year though a SxS. Will any of the turkish offerings hold up to that kind of usage, I don't know. Will my 100 year old Ithaca, also don't know (I may find out). My primary tournament OU is turkish made, it eats 10k a year without a glitch, not a cheap gun, The Dickinson is stunning if you can find one, certainly not cheap. For those that spend significantly more time shooting targets rather than game birds, I can think of worse options.
All my OU's have CCH receivers, so a little classic styling is definitely my preference. I'd really like to see a more traditional finish, maybe CG will do something interesting with the platform if it's successful.
