A friend of mine has offered to give me an O/U shotgun as partial payment of some money that I loaned him a while back. The problem is, that I'm not sure of the manufacture. He was told that the gun is a Huglu, but neither of us has enough experience to be sure. I know pics would help, and maybe I can get some posted tomorrow. For a verbal description, the barrel is marked "Sporting Products LLC, Palm Beach Fl." on the left side. The right side of the top barrel is marked "Classic Game". The barrels are a sort of black oxide finish but look brand new. Reciever is silver with floral type engraving.The wood is very nice. Now for the wierd part, the rubber buttpad is marked Winchester and it fits the stock perfectly. So is this indeed a Huglu with a mixmatched buttpad, or something else? My guess is that someone has changed the pad for better fit or something. Any help is appreciated.
