Thanks guys. No word yet on a 28. I will be surprised if they actually ever make one.

No offense to anyone on the Dickinsons, but Adam, if you don't have a 28ga Parker Repro, you should really look into one. They could be the best bang for the price range.

One reason I doubt they will make one; and if they do why I likely wont buy one, is that all three gauges offered are on the 20ga frame with the fences adjusted to the barrel size. If they make a 28, it will likely be on this action as well, and be to damn heavy IMO.

Chuck, I agree with you--except you're talking a very different price range, Parker Repro 28 vs Dickinson 28. Like 3x as much money (likely more than that, compared to a Dickinson at $1500) for a Repro 28.

I've heard the 28ga models are already built.... On a scaled frame, too. They should be shipping anytime now.

If they are in fact on a scaled frame I will have one in my safe. It would be a nice addition. I rarely ever shoot the one 28ga I have, but it would be fun just to shoot now and then.

Especially if we're talking a gun down around 6# or less, where a scaled frame 28ga ought to be, I hope they've done a better job on trigger pulls! The lighter the gun, the worse the effects of heavy triggers.

Today I bought one of the few remaining guns from Cabelas. Mine is a 16 gauge, DT, 28" screw choked, English stocked beauty. And for $1600. Who else does that? There are several 12's and 20's left, but I would not drag my feet. I have not seen or heard about a 28 in this gun...

Is Cabela's discontinuing this line of guns? Any further word on whether a scaled frame 28 gauge will be offered?

Any of you folks know where I can round up some additional choke tubes in 16 gauge? That has got to be challenging....Thanks.
