Anyone own a Huglu?
« on: October 05, 2003, 02:20:49 PM »
And if you do, how does it shoot? I bought one from a friend that has never been shot. Still had the tags on it. It is easily the "prettiest" shotgun I have ever owned. Just cant decide if I want to hunt quail with it this year or not.

I don't have one, but a member of my gun club shoots a Hulu O/U for skeet and is quite please with it.  Seems to shoot fine, and has proven to be reliable and durable.  Seems like a lot of shotgun for the money from his comments.

Recently purchased a Huglu 103CE1228 Field model.  So far have been pleased with the fit, finish, and overall quality - nice engraving on receiver.  Have shot trap and sporting clays with it and seems to do well enough for me.  For the money, am very pleased with how it shoots.  Came with 5 screw in chokes, can order others.  Armsco imports them and there are "high end" models available also.

Much better quality for the money than the far east models I've seen.

Wanting: Doesn't have a self setting safety tho.

I have a SO in 20 ga double triggers, screw in chokes , and love it. I have huinted with it for two years now and have never had any problems. Thinking about getting a 16 gage  in the S2 model.

I've had the S0 16 gauge from Huglu USA (now H-Legacy Ltd) for a couple of years now.  Beautiful Turkish walnut with nice fit & finish.  6 Lbs 5 ozs and is as light at the end of the day as when I start.  Shoots where I look and I've filled some limits with it.  I did have a problem this year with it though. It would fire the left barrel only if the right wasn't fired first.  Otherwise, no-go.  I contacted Mark DeHaan (proprietor of DeHaan Shotguns / H-Legacy) and was told to send it in for repairs.  It turned out the firing pins where defective and were replaced under warranty, and he threw in a trigger job for my troubles.  I really liked the gun before, but now I love it.  Mark is a super guy to deal with, his guns are the best value out there, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone. When my penny jar gets fuller, I will be ordering something else from him.
