Salopian, I'll keep my eyes open. I bought mine from the estate of a deceased friend via his executors on a sealed bid. So it's not one I wish to part with. I did have a 26" one in tip top order but for some reason I shot very badly with it. I never could get along with shorter barrels. I thought it would have been ideal in the pigeon hide. Good luck with convincing the other half. They can be full of surprises. I was in a gunshop in Winchester, Hampshire last year and happened to admire a little 20 bore and was told to treat myself. After getting up off the floor that's exactly what I did.
Recoil Rob, Brady's is, believe it or not, now a one man operation. Up some back stairs in what is left of the Birmingham gun quarter. Just two small rooms. I guess he will make whatever is ordered. I was lucky to buy one that had been in store in a gunshop for many years and still in its original wrappings. I want to fit it to my 700 when I can find the right lable. Lagopus.....
