Why do people under value Bakers? I've had several and they all have performed flawlessly. I have two project guns Baker made and sold under the Montgomery Wards name. Both heavy 32", heavy barreled and tightly choked. Would make either nice sporting clay's gun or water-fowlers. Certainly not a brush gun. I had another straight grip 26" Baker which someone had restocked and bobbed the barrels. It would have been a great gun for close cover.
