Better SBS pistol pictures

Took some better pictures of the SBS that i built.
20 Ga. 16" overall, 10" barrels.
The only thing I didn't do is the checkering on the pistol grip. I cut the barrels, filled the rib void, installed the sight, made the pistol grip, engraved the action, engraved my maker info, nickel plated the action, gold plated the triggers.

Beautiful work. Looks a lot like the old Ithaca Auto & Burglar model.

Very pretty!
That grip angle looks severe. Is it comfortable to shoot?

Comfortable? No- not particularly, but you can't get the web of your hand stuck under the opening lever, and on recoil, you won't accidentally pull the second trigger.
The angle is about the same as the second version of the Ithaca Auto & Burglar gun.

I've had more than one Mossberg Shockwave owner complain about their hand getting chewed up by the top mounted safety. Several dislike that so much they went and sold their Shockwave and bough the Rem 870 Tac 14.

Beautiful gun you have there!
