That's correct; it was the Valier model. Initially, it was offered both with and without ejectors. I can't recall any of the gun writers doing a review on the Valier, but I remember one on the Kimber OU--the "Marias" model. I think written by Bruce Buck in Shooting Sportsman. That gun had problems firing reloads reliably and, I think, one brand of factory shells. Also quite heavy for a 20ga field gun. I believe Bruce found a couple other issues as well. And that gun sold for about $2K more, if I recall, than the Valier. I don't think they sold many.
