HA1321 Smith & Wesson Silver Elite Round-Body Game-Target-Shotgun, O/U, 12 Ga., 2 3/4" &3", 30"MC Bbls., New-In-Box, $1,895 SALE $1,195

For a full page of  photographs and a detailed description click the photo above or click here.

The Smith & Wesson Silver Elite Over/Under is an all-around shogun suitable for hunting or clay target shooting. It is also ambidextrous in that it has neutral cast, and no left or right palm swells.  It chambers both 2 3/4" shells for skeet, sporting clays or trap, and 3" shell for hunting.  It has 30" non-ported barrels so your hunting companions and dogs won't complain of the noise.  It has a 14 3/4" Length of Pull, from its single non-selective trigger (the bottom barrel always shoots first) to its solid rubber recoil pad.  It has a bone charcoal case hardened receiver, and a finely jeweled Monobloc. It comes with five choke tubes in Full, Improved Modified, Modified, Improved Cylinder and Cylinder constrictions, and a friction choke tool (sort of a Morse style Taper).  It has hand-cut 24 LPI checkering.  It has a front white bead and brass mid-bead sights.  It was made by Smith & Wesson in their own factory in Turkey, but is guaranteed and serviced by Smith & Wesson in the U.S.A.. The guarantee is unique, when you send in the warranty registration card you designate an heir, so the gun is under warranty for your life, plus your heirs lifetime.  This wouldn't mean much from some companies, but S&W has been around for a long time.  It apparently did not sell well at the list price of $2,380, and Hero's Arms would have been selling it at $1,895, but I have been able to get a few at close-out pricing and can sell it for half of list price, $1,195 (While they last the un-photographed ones will have free shipping).

HA1174 Tristar Hunter EX O/U, 28 Ga., 2 3/4", 28"MC Bbls., NIB, $595

For a full page of  photographs and a detailed description click the photo above or click here.

Tristar imports this gun from Turkey, and guarantees it for five years. It is very hard to find 28 Gauge guns with screw in chokes under $1500, so this is a real bargain. It comes with five Beretta style chokes in Full, Improved Modified, Modified, Improved Cylinder and Skeet constrictions.  It has an extractor - lifter- rather than ejectors, weighs 5 pounds, 3 ounces and has a 14 5/8" Length Of Pull.  It has a vent rubber butt pad, a jeweled Monobloc, and floral engraving on the receiver. It has a non-automatic safety, chrome lined bores, and a single selective mechanical trigger.  The trigger pull is heavy at 8 lbs 13 ounces, but this will probably loosen up after a few rounds. This is a lot of gun for the money, good for hunting and skeet. It comes with a Lifetime Replacement warranty from Davidson's. (Click here for details)

HA1118 Miida 2200 Skeet, O/U, 12 Ga., 2 3/4", 27" SK/SK (Used 97%), $995

For a full page of  photographs and a detailed description click the photo above or click here.

OK, so I didn't know what a Miida was either. Miida (Pronounced Mee-ee-dah) is a Winchester 101, but with better wood and engraving, smuggled out of the Ohlin-Kodensha plant where the 101 was made by Nikko to be assembled in a building next door and then sold in the US in 1972 and 1973 by Marubeni USA (all this according to the Blue Book entry on Nikko).  This used Miida is in excellent condition except for a crack in the wood behind the receiver on the left side which doesn't cause any trouble and seems unlikely to grow. It has beautiful, almost full coverage, deeply incised, floral engravings on the receiver and top lever.  The forearm release lever is the older, more expensive to make, two piece design similar to the Browning Superposed.  It accepts 2 3/4" shells in its 27" barrels, fixed choked Skeet and Skeet.  It has a 14" Length Of Pull over a plastic but plate, making it suitable for the shorter shooter, and of course, a recoil pad could be installed to increase the LOP.  This would be an excellent gun for skeet, upland hunting or sporting clays, particularly since a gun of this quality and appearance is rarely found selling for under $1000.

Tristar imports this gun from Turkey, and guarantees it for five years. It is very hard to find .410's with screw in chokes under $1500, so this is a real bargain.

It has a non-automatic safety, chrome lined bores, and a single selective mechanical trigger.  The trigger pull is heavy at 8 lbs 14 ounces, but this will probably loosen up after a few rounds.

HA933 Browning Superposed (Belgium), O/U, 12 Ga. 2 3/4", 30"M/F Bbls, (Used 95%), $995

For a full page of  photographs and a detailed description click the photo above or click here.

When I first started in the Firearms business I intended to restore old shotguns, and this1963 Browning would have been a perfect candidate.  Years of having people who watch "Antiques Road Show" tell me I should have never "touched it", and earnings of $0.25 an hour finally dissuaded me and now I sell them as they come.  This gun is mechanically in good shape, the bluing is good, only slightly worn on sharp corners, and it could be used as is.  Here is a list of the defects: it started with a Monte-Carlo stock, but the Monte-Carlo has been (I suspect professionally) shaved off and not refinished with the gloss finish (See the photo of the left stock for the refinish line); it has a replacement "White Line" recoil pad which is now rock-hard and should be replaced again; it is missing the white bead insert in the front sight, though the sight base is there; there are various handling marks in the wood, most of which could be steamed out after the finish has been removed.  When you get through with this refinishing you will have an attractive Classic shotgun for field or trap.
