Good to hear. Did you get the youth or adult version?

Congratulations scout, I have a 28 and it is a great gun. I got feedback from others here before I bought mine and there was only good said about them, except for the cost and availability of various ammo. I wish someone made readily available slugs for the 28 gauge....<><....:)

I love my 28 too!

Very fun to shoot. I plan on buying some reloading equipment eventually
so I can shoot it even more.

Hey Fella's! Thanks for the reply's! Mines full size adult version, glad I got that one, I think the youth version would have been way to short for me. I actually thought at first this was a little bit shorter a pull by just the way it shoulders. then I measured it, and its 14" surprised at that! she's a dandy! Taken my son saturday morning along with his gun & ammo a fist full of clay birds an down to whats known here as Decker hollow shootin range, they have a shotgun range there, so it'll be great! That will our first stop, then to the game lands thats only a stone throw away from there. I'll let you all know. Yeah Roy....here coyote....here coyote,..Ha! Ha!...I was thinkin like that with using my 410 slugger! Have a good one Fella's! scout4<><
