it is time to do the happy-dance:

Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting

I put 10 rounds of 2-3/4 "heavy field load" and 5 rounds of 3" sabot slugs through it:

- feeds like a dream.
- ejects cleanly and crisply to between 3 and 5 feet at about 80degrees from sightline.
- trigger is heavy, but breaks crisply.
- very light kick even for a gas-operated 12guage... kicks like a weak 20guage... muzzle climb very moderate.
- 2 r/s fire on target quite easily accomplished.
- sights are a freakin' DREAM, rapid acquisition and very 2-eye friendly.

I don't particularly like recreational shooting with 12guage shotguns (being, as some low fellows of the baser sort have pointed out, a "stickboy"), but this one I would be pleased to shoot for hours on end.

That's a very pretty picture, indeed.

Living out here in CA, I can confirm that absence does, indeed, make the heart grow fonder.

Were it possible to die of envy, you'd need a new Wizard.

Congrats, KP!

I take it you now understand why I recommend those Saiga shotguns. :) They are a superb shooter, and an excellent combat arm.
