Thank you and yes, Gunter, it is a MX 8, imported by Winchester but used very little until I bought it about 12-14 yrs. ago. It was a trap model, with Monte Carlo comb and 31 1/2" barrels, stepped rib, and F and F chokes. I wanted it for sporting, so before I had a chance to take a rasp to the stock a friend gave me another buttstock, which is on it now. I had the chokes opened to .020" and .020", and have never regretted that decision.
Before it I had an older one exactly like it but imported by Ithaca.
