Bet you're not the only one in that boat, Peter! Got to watch those Mossberg Silver Reserves. I think the toplever on the 20 ga. cocks the hammers. Not that I'd own one of course but one of my friends does hahaha. I prefer to spend my tuppence on hand-me-downs from a great maker like Browning. I wouldn't trade my 9C$ Superposed Lightning with the thinwall Brileys (part of the package) for all the Mossbergs in the world. I could probably be coaxed to look at a CZ double.
