Has anyone seen one (in person) or even seen a review of one? I stumbled across it on the CSMC website today.
Looks like it starts at $4,950 or so, beaver tail foreend, 8 lbs, single trigger, non-automatic safety, barrel lengths out to 32, and choke tubes. The ones they have built for sale are over $6,000.
Interesting gun and would maybe consider a long barrel version for sporting clays and duck hunting.

Looks like a stripped down version of the RBL Sporting Edition, without the adjustable comb, the laser engraving and gold inlay clay pigeon and the weight & Balance system. Also only the one recoil pad so no adjustment for length-of-pull.

Ventilated rib, $300 less than solid rib? This is definitely not the light 12.

Target pistol grip with tighter curve, ramped rib. $2000 more than it should be. I would prefer this for half the price: https://www.gunsinternational.com/guns-f...un_id=101506838Probably more reliable and with better dynamics as well. No brainer... JR

The ad copy reads "Hand built by the finest gunsmiths in the world". They must have been on vacation when my CSMC 21 was built & on sick leave when I sent it back for repair.

That is the route I went. 2 years ago picked up a 12 ga. 32 and had an adjustable comb cut and an ISIS recoil system installed. I am a high volume shooter and at one time would download the 12 to 7/8 oz. loads. Finally said the heck with that that is what a 20 ga. is for. It has basically replaced my other target guns since I got it. Liked it enough that I got a 30" 20 ga. also, I couldn't pass on that grade 4 wood. May be a 16 ga. 32" in my future. Pacific Sporting Arms is great to deal with. When I talked to John about the 16 ga. he did mention that he could get me a 32" 16 ga. Perazzi but of course it would be an O/U and more than 5 figures.

I would really like to be able to shoot one, before "taking the plunge", but that's not likely to happen. SRH
