blowing the dust off an old friend...
bought this old beauty back in 1996. It's a 12g/30" Lightning Sporting Clays Edition with hi-post rib. It's a great gun for all three sports; skeet, sporting and trap. I have a friend who wants to buy it, but now I'm reluctant to sell. It's the second target gun I bought, right after my Browning B325. Damn...

I used to be that way, but not anymore. The gun above weighs 8.6 pounds. My 12 gauge B325 weighs 7.10 pounds. Big difference. Anyway, I shoot 20's 90% of the time. Just this morning I received a valid offer on the 12 gauge Lightning Sporter. It goes...

As long as you don't regret selling it ....I hope you have some fun looking for the gun to replace it with.
I'm heading to my club today ...with a 28ga and my .410 ....so I understand not wanting to shoot 12ga's all the time... |

Been selling a few guns lately and have a few greenbacks in my piggy bank!! |

I thought those thigies sticking out of the barrels were to hold my bayonet? If I can't break a clay with shot I can stab it.
