Gents,
I've been looking for a good condition Webley Scott 700 for a while now (Grouse/Woodcock), and I seem to find a lot of the 26" Bbl models, but the 28" is harder to find, particularly in better condition. Ideally I'd like a sub 6lb 16 or 20. I've only had one previous gun at 26", a rather heavy Citori 12g and it didn't swing very well at all (for me). Formerly used to use a 28" Arrieta 20g for Upland.
-Will the 26" guns hold their value going forward. Many seem to languish on dealer shelves, I've seen the same ones for a while now.
-Toward the end of production did Webley make more of the 26" Bbl guns?
-Is there a practical difference in SxS guns in the swing/feel of the 26 v 28
-Other thoughts and your opinions appreciated on this issue that has been around For Ever. Just stirring up some discussions.
Unless two barrel sets have much difference in weight (barrel thickness) two inch difference is too small to be noticed.
