I have an old Japanese made smoothbore that i believe was made by Miroku in the 70's. Has a 32" oct/round barrel with a good bore. Weight is about 7 1/2lbs. Outside of barrel has nice patina. It is a good shooter. It sparks ok, actually it sparks pretty good, but if i were going to keep it i think i would replace the lock with an L&R Trade Lock which appears as if it would be a pretty easy swap or at least get a better quality frizzen. It patterns pretty well with shot loads out to 30 yds. and does good with a ticking patched .648 rd ball. I haven't shot it enough to work up a Good load though. It has a 2 piece stock like the CVA Kentucky's with some small brass tacks to fill holes where i removed the large fake patch box. Will come with a wood ramrod with jag, and a bag of thin over shot wads, which is all i use, for $450 shipped in lower 48 or $400 if picked up within 50 miles or so of Roseburg, Or.
