Some make excuses for them. Most of these American sxs shotguns have been used for over 100 years and are still going strong with nothing done to them, not even a full cleaning. Most of these guns were used hard in putting food on the table and a small percentage were used in the sporting games of trap and these were used hard also.

I find that I do have to make excuses for them, they are what they are, a mass produced shotgun that filled the bill for the American shooter.

Remember in Europe it is mostly a privilege to hunt and own a shotgun. Also, that Purdey, Boss, H&H does not shoot any better or farther than the cheapest made American sxs.
