With the constant barrage of non-toxic ammo legislation that we're being threatened with I recon it's just a matter of time that we'll all have to spend two to three dollars per round of ammunition to keep my old doubles in the field. All of my doubles are old field grade guns so eventually I want to get a nice modern gun that will handle mid to smaller sizes of steel shot. I don't want a stoeger, a bss, or a cz. I really like the looks of the Weatherby doubles but I've never seen one in person. What else is there in the under $2000 range?
My requirements are
1. 12 ga.
2. Double triggers
3. No chunky beaver tail forends
4. No bulged muzzles like the choke tube equipped CZs have
5. No center ribs that look like an old sway backed horse like my Stevens 311 has. Man I hate that rib!
Three inch chambers would be nice but I could get along just fine with 2 3/4 inch chambers if need be. I don't care if the stock is straight or pistol gripped and I could live with extractors or ejectors just the same.
Does such an animal exist in my price range or will I have to spend more to get what I want?
