Default Stoeger SXS

I see Stoeger is offering "traditional English SXS" for $350CDN. Anyone know much about them. Russian or Turkish I wonder?

I bought the Stoeger over under 12/20 this spring and like it alot. Not the best piece of wood but for the price you can not go wrong with the gun for 350.

I have one in SXS28 ( could be an IGA?), mine is made in Brazil.
These guns are NOT traditionally styled BTW, traditional English stocks have a STRAIGHT or PRINCE OF WALES grip, these guns have a pistol grip.
They are however, an inexpensive alternative to an better made gun.

Years back my uncle said Brazilian steel is good but the wood is so-so. I bought my IGA coach and what do you know he was right. The gun is tight to this day and shoots like a dream. Way better than some of the russian coaches i've seen come and go at the range. They got loose in a hurry. I want to try the 28ga with the straight grip which is hard to find. I've seen a few pics.
