Not too muckin' futch, Joseph. right now-a-days, good time to hang onto what you got, and invest cautiously in high end guns-even good pre-1964 Winchesters, not always that easy to unload at a solid profit margin as in the pre-Covid days. So this ol' Fox ain't likely to lay out $1500 for the A.H. Fox (Phila gun) AE 12 gauge #3wt, 30" Krupp barrels-at least not right now.RWTF

I know this post has devolved somewhat but in the FWIW column, I just got invited to chase a bunch of quail (like 100!) at a local pet and shoot tomorrow and I will be taking my "awful" Dickenson 28/.410 (28 tubes on a .410 frame). It worked so-well on ruffed grouse up in the North Woods I figured on quail it should be about perfect. 5 1/4 lbs of easy carry and pockets full of ammo that don't really weigh anything. When it rains it pours I guess (as I've been cutting up deer all day today). Now I'll have to find even more room in the freezer, sheesh!

This thread is more about the failure of Dickinson Arms to properly deal with a manufacturing defect rather than the basic good design of the product!
I Have a Kreighoff Essencia boxlock (trigger plate action) 16 ga which (I think) has origins in the same Turkish, but much modified action forging. Nothing wrong with the design, just how it is put together.

I have to ask.
What makes you think your Essencia has anything to do with Turkey? Jens Ziegenhahn sources his actions in Germany, not Turkey.
Unless something has grievously changed.
Out there doing it best I can.

OK- but a shot at World history reveals the Kaiser Willie allied with some Turk Mustapha in WW1- and Turkish troops carried Mauset K98's , along with C96 Mauser Pistolen forever-perhaps that's where the roots of the infidels penetrating the ranks of Dem Meisterbuchenmacher Guild have their origin??
