A nice looking race gun, for sure. Since I'm not making my living shooting NSCA, my side by side sporting guns are pretty much the way they were made. I'm setting up a Smith sporting gun right now and my biggest expense has been a piece of stick on sanding disc on each side of the grip area (the checkering is a bit worn). One barrel is already .025 and I think I'll leave the other side at .033. It's a 32" vent rib ejector gun. I have high hopes for its future. I may shoot a few ducks with it too. By the way, Silvers, you won't catch me writing about SC much. I shot USSCA and NSCA from the start, have a very low NSCA number. I gave up the registered birds very early in NSCA history, early nineties. I had a good time, got my A card, but when prime registered birds came close to a buck a bird, I found it hard to find a regular travelling companion. I would go back, but I think its too late.
