doublegunshop.com - home Forums General Discussion DoubleGun BBS @ doublegunshop.com Update Complete 1/9/21 it was a squeaker!

Anyone else seeing a black diamond with a question mark in it dispersed through postings? Seems to replace some punctuation marks.

"Recently I took delivery of a 28 gauge FAIR Iside SXS boxlock shotgun. It was a special order gun with left hand wood, and reversed double triggers. I ordered the English model with scalloped back frame and ejectors. I can report that I am pleased with the gun. It was made in Italy and imported by the Italian Firearms group in Texas. I had some initial trouble ordering it through the first man I contacted there, but my second contact with a female rep went well. The gun has 15� LOP to the front trigger. That a tad long for me with heavy clothing, but I removed the buttplate and it�s fine. In a thin shirt 15� works fine. The FAIR idea of cast is not much, about 3/16�, so I had to have it bent more for me. The cast off for right hand stocks is about the same. I paid about $75 extra for a left hand stock and $200 for reversed double triggers. Single triggers are standard. The gun weighs 5 lb 4 oz with 28� barrels. It shoots both barrels to the same aiming point and I shoot it pretty well. I was after a lightweight gun I could carry in one hand and this fits the bill. I can encircle the gun at the balance point and my thumb and middle finger touch. That�s small because I have small hands. I have less than $3K in the gun including bending the stock. The delivery time was 10 weeks. Your dealer can place the order directly with the importer. They have a decent inventory on hand. The Iside (Ee see dee) model is available in all gauges. They also make O/U guns in a variety of models and gauges."

I see black diamonds too, but the update have now a better look for me!

Direct from my phone would be great

Thank you, Dave. I am excited about the easy picture posting feature

The only difference that I can see between uploading an image to storage on this site, and uploading the same image to a free photo hosting site is that I need to open a second window the way things are now.... Upload, Copy, Click back to DoubleGunShop.com, and Paste. Hardly a big deal.

It takes me about 15 seconds to do all of that to insert an image into a post here, the way things are now. It is a bit more tedious to post images directly from my phone, but still not bad. Actually, it takes longer to find an image in my image files than it does to post one here. And I do not store any images on a photo hosting site. Look at what happened last year with PhotoBucket.

And think about this... If anything ever happened that caused the loss of images stored here, the whiners and crybabies would blame you Dave, just as the Preacher is now blaming Picture Trail.

By the way, does your favorite double shotgun, rifle, or pistol have a biometric trigger???
