Or….its skeletonized so you can view the Crystal window for the cocking indicators.
The lever is unusually long as well, necessary because the action is cocked by the lever.

One of my little 28 bores. MacNaughton round action. Weight is 4-9oz. That's a nice'un! Wanna sell it? 2 1/2 chambers, I presume? Well if I did, I’d need a bunch. I do have this new in box & cased AYA no2 28 I would sell. Aya's are nice guns. I'm tempted, but I already have one in .410. I'm kinda in english shotgun mode at the moment. Love that MacNaughton.

What's going on in the piercing in the top lever? Skeletonized. Like drilled accelerator, brake, and clutch pedals in a race car. "Add lightness." Yes, I realized that. However, there is a tang bolt going down to the trigger bar, but what is the second bolt head behind it? Most knowledgeable gun guys call those things screws, not bolts. The English call them pins... but certainly not bolts. When we see a round headed fastener with a screw slot, we don't call it a "bolt head". They are tightened or loosened with screwdrivers (or turnscrews). The average housewife might call them bolts, or even nails. And we would be mildly amused. The Nutty Professor, who gets all picky about Ted referring to his carelessly blown up Rock Island built Springfield Model of 1903 rifle as a "Springfield", ought to be more precise with common gun terminology. How can someone who thinks he is so smart and superior be such a total doofus on a regular basis?
A true sign of mental illness is any gun owner who would vote for an Anti-Gunner like Joe Biden.

I have a Rizzini Iside sxs in 28ga, a browning BPS pump, and an old Savage 220 single shot in 28ga. I've developed a recoil problem in my old age and the 28's may be the future of my shooting. Do they make 28ga TSS turkey shells?...Geo

Do they make 28ga TSS turkey shells?...Geo . Yes. Foxtrot and a few other boutique concerns make them. Now is the time to find them There is a 1 oz. 20 ga. Load that is pretty good. We'll talk about that one. Physics control both actual and felt recoil. Gun weight, velocity and ejecta mass govern recoil regardless of gauge. The 1 oz load in #9 tss is all you need in your single shot 20. Gil

![[Linked Image from imagizer.imageshack.com]](https://imagizer.imageshack.com/v2/1600x1200q70/923/YQCAsN.jpg) I took a 28 gauge Rizzini to northern Iowa today. I haven't had the gun very long and this is the result of my 3rd shot. The first opportunity was a real close one and I missed with both barrels. Ugh! I berated myself for a while for taking an unfired gun, let alone a 28 gauge. We then had some wild flushes that were in the next area code. Finally Zeb worked a runner out of a frozen grassy creek and ended up pointing it in an adjacent CRP type field and this time I didn't miss. I used the modified and improved modified tubes and in the end plain old IC/Mod would have been fine for the shots were close. I've taken plenty of pheasants this year so I was prepared to forgo the long shots.The load was the Fiocchi Golden Pheasant 7/8 oz 6's. Pros: The 28 was a delight to carry. Cons: None today!

Looks like a BR550 Round Body. I have one in 28ga and 32ga. Nice gun for woodcock and grouse.
