Oh yes! I have 3 of them. Set up the recoil system right and they are so comfy to shoot, beware if you get the friction setting wrong and they will kick like a mule.

Incredible engineering and quality built, they were in production over 100 years.

You have to have one....

As the list shows they changed the serial number format in 54-55 but they did not start to use the new format until 56 ,Until then the old serial no's were used.

The positive date identifier will be the proof marks where there will be a date single letter without a star above it.

Well mine arrived yesterday and I took it out for a round of skeet today, Scored 21 so quite pleased as I have not shot anything in 12 months.

 

Great fun semi auto even cycled 21g. Mine must be before 1953 as it does not have speed load. Looking to get a synthetic stock once I can get hold of one from the USA.
