WTB 28 gauge SxS Shotgun

[ianpadron]

Looking for a good deal on an Italian, Spanish, or English double.

AYA, FAIR, Ugartechea, Fausti...the usual suspects.

Strong preference for a 28 gauge, but I'd consider the right 20 as well. 14 1/2" min LOP, no preference on triggers.

Have seen the current lineup on GI and Gunbroker, nothing quite trips my trigger for the price and specs.

Hmu fellow bird nuts, even if it's sitting at your local shop and not your gun.

I have had a Rizinni O/U 20 for years, it's a wand carry all day shoots great, single trigger.
Bought a FAIR SxS 20 DTs less then six #s awesome gun also.
I carried the SxS all season until the weather got cold enough for gloves. Either is nice for Prairie walks or woods. I did buy the FAIR from GUNS.com went well.

Were you able to get the Guns.com vendor to send pics of the gun prior to purchase? I've seen a few on there and MGW with stock photos only and have zero interest in not being able to see what kind of wood I'm working with before buying.

I didn't ask for a picture of the exact gun, but had very good experience with the gun service agents afterwards.
The ad said it had 5 chokes but the box only had 3 which were shipped by IFG so not much they could do. They gave me a credit so I was happy. Not a go to place for me they just had the best price on that gun at the time.

Here you go. That seems a decent price for 28ga.

Set on a sxs, or is an o/u acceptable?

SxS only. I find O/Us a complete abomination

SxS only.

Even with a field stock, double triggers and nice hand-cut engraving, and coming in under 6lb, for a pretty reasonable price?

Yeah honestly o/u's just don't do it for me.

I'm a semi auto and SxS guy

Shotgun forums has a few..

I’d look hard at the upland gun company offerings.

I’m pretty partial to my old beretta.

I much prefer the beaver tail fore ends to splinter.
