I have a 20 gauge CZ Upland model with 28" barrels and DT. The triggers were way too heavy but my gunsmith was able to get them in very good shape. It's a well made gun and I would use it a lot were it not for the fact that it shoots low. Instead of the 60/40 type pattern that I like, it shoots something like 20/80. It mostly stays in the safe.

Throwing a 20/80 pattern? Ouch.

If you want double triggers in the CZ, get the Bobwhite and not the Sharp Tail

That's an easy fix, coosa. Just build up the comb. It'll shoot higher. You can do it a little at the time and watch the pattern come up. If it is centered now, right and left, be careful not to build up the side toward your face as you build up the comb height. Some people use large pieces of moleskin and build them up until they are high enough, but they also let it wrap down the side which pushes the pattern left or right, according to whether the shooter is left handed or right handed.

Discontinued and was hoping for 28" bbls. Looks like the Bobwhite's were 26"

Except that they no longer offer the Bobwhite. Have to buy a used one.

Sounds like the Dickinson Estate models at $1600 would meet your needs. Nice guns with good reviews by many.

Used Dickinson 28s seem to be selling around $1300. One was just sold on this site.



A lot of gun for that money.

I examined one of these faux Dickson & Son at Cabela's this morning. It had scaled frame with 30" barrels. If you don't mind chromed action w/o roundness 28" barrels used DeHaan Huglu would be less expensive alternative.
