Got a new Lion Country Supply catalog and see that there are a few new grades on the higher level sidelocks. Anyone have any comments on them? Same on the inside, with just different engraving or are the guts refined as well?

Hi Josh, I just looked at the web site and all I see are the standard Grades (I thru V) that they have offered for some time. Are these the grades you saw in their catalog?

I have a Grade IV in 16ga. It is a very good quality gun. The Grade IV is the same SLE as the Model 75 that is marketed ovrseas. The Grade V is the same Model only it is a Round Action. The actions are the same.

Uggies are very good guns with an excellent reps. For the price they are hard to beat. The major "beef" with Uggies is the wood. Very plain, but now and the you get some good wood. The finish is not the best and could be improved upon. LCS does offer an upgraded wood option.

Ugartechea does make some very good high grade guns. These can be compared to some of the higher grade guns offered by other Spanish makers.

Here's a link to their site:

All the best!
