Oh, one of those Turkish-made Weatherbys.

How do you like it?

Well I like it pre-range so far. Fit and finish is really nice. I like the shorter LOP and the pistol grip is well...grippy. It points well and feels well balanced. Have not shot it yet so I can't say how it functions. Soon, very soon...

I do have the PA-08, another Weatherby made in Turkey and I have nothing but good things to say about it.

I'm hoping it's just as good if not better.

Is it Sunday yet? I am just itching to go.

I love the feels of this shotgun and the graphics is a plus. I have never seen anything like it.

The graphics are really cool, did those come on that stock originally or is that painted?
