10 Gauge SXS

cabbit10 · June 23, 2006, 07:41 PM

I'm looking for a 10 gauge SXS double barrel.

Any suggestions?

Look for an AyA Matador (or any AyA if the pocket can bear it) Or a Richland or American Arms one, or better yet a Mercury. The 10ga Berettas are really pricey but VERY sweet. 10 ga SxS tend to crack the butt stocks around the wrist for some reason

Warning - 10 ga doubles are no good for steel shot out of their tight, thin , and soft full and full chokes. When steel was mandated I cut my AyA to 20" for a fun gun and bought a BPS for waterfowl and turkeys.I guess you could use some of the bismuth or heavy shot-maybe!

Cut down to 20" for fun? How about cut it down to about 8" and make an AOW out of it. That would be a real hand cannon

Great for home defense.

Yes, kill two of the intruders with the first shot, set the third and fourth on fire fire while simultaneously blind and deafen them. You have a whole 'nother barrel for the fifth.
