Holy cow, I never thought of that!
Yes, this gun comes apart very easily, of course. I did it each time I cleaned it. (The 5gal bucket routine.)
Ok, I WILL SHIP. Flat $100 for packing & shipping in the CONUS. (I will double-box it and insure for the full amount.)
I'm very surprised to see little interest thus far, I must admit. :) This is a heirloom item, and very practical as well.
In a month I'll reduce the price $100 if not sold.
Hello guys. I've got one of these incredibly beauties I'm going to part with.
https://www.davide-pedersoli.com/en/product/side-side-shotgun-classic-standard-12ga-cylmod
I bought it new from Midway about a year ago after waiting months for them to come back in stock. It has only been fired...
I shoot .380 balls over either 20 or 25gr of powder, with a Wonder Wad under the bullet.
I definitely don't use crisco or bore butter and have never had a chain fire.
The gun shoots fine, as long as 4" 50' groups are okay.
And this is Ok with me now.
I'll get to this at some point.
But why the heck can't Pietta do it? :) Yes, they cost under $400, but so does my Bersa Thunder .380 auto, which is ALSO more accurate than this gun (barely, but it has a much shorter barrel).
My two Pietta 1858 .36 revolvers were bought new.
I bought swagging bullets with no jackets. No, I didn't lube, but they're soft lead, and the bore was coated with Ballistol.
Not giving up - they're fun! - but putting this on the back burner.
Update (Warning - Long):
I got my wood dowels. I put the gun in a padded vice and attempted to push one of the swagging bullets through. I didn't even get it all the way in with the hammer - it was extremely difficult, and the bullet - nearly an inch long - was deforming under the blows...
Come on guys you don't need a wood stock on a gun like this. :) Yes I love real wood but composite is superior in all respects, and this is NOT an "historical" gun.
It's a super light, compact gun that will kill deer with round balls under 125Y or so all day long.
