Hay Whitetail Junkie did you get that shotgun from clay at prophrt river?
I ordered in a 28ga fenice, and they shipped a 20ga, clay had to reorder. Just got my 28ga about 2 week ago, dam nice shotgun, blasted a 100 odd shot at beverhills clays, aursum, quick pointing, light weight gun
got a 150rds nice shot loaded up for ducks, going to pattern test this week.
I did concider taking that shotgun after i had recieved the 28ga, still might order one and get a matching pair.

Very nice, almost too "purdy" to shoot.
Love the wood grain.

it's the same as the Berreta "extra wood" enhanced grain system.
Not photo finished, but not the natural grain either.
