one of the most sought-after pump shotguns ever made
Why do you say this? My Dad carried one in the field for like 40 years, it was heavy, would cut the top of my thumb with the hammer bite and after 40 years of use it would go off by itself if bumped in the right way

I had 4 of them but they were so dang heavy to carry I got rid of them and went with a lighter gun.

Used to make me laff when he went to the trap range andbeat the rich guys had very expensive guns. Dad could get 100 out of a 100 just about any day of the week and had trophys to prove it.

Dont they make a lighter copy now?
