I'm running out of space in the gun closet and want to make room for a 375hh rifle so this has to go. I looked for one of these for years and do love it but my Italian 20ga just gets more play in the field. This is a fantastic, hard to find, quick handling upland gun weighing at just about 5.8 lbs.
