Difficult to judge left hand cast, you would need to see it to check. Where do you live?

Hi, Thanks for response. It has a slight right hand cast, shoots a little above straight, figure of eight view on sights. Hope that helps. Thanks David Regarding drop at comb, there isn't any! It has a monte carlo stock which means the top of the stock is parallel to the barrel rib.

The photos were sent by email on 11 March and a reply was received to that email stating " Looks OK , payment sent" Email headers have been sent to this buyer and I fail to understand how he can allege he didn't receive an email which he replied to! Really wish I had not agreed to sell this to this buyer. In addition it seems that this is a ploy to get a refund, the gun was sold at a price to sell for £500, I paid £625 for this 15 years ago and used it twice. The cheapest Miroku 3800 grade 3 26" barrels on gun trader is £795, this gun was sold at rock bottom price just to reduce my collection.

Photos cannot lie! There were 7 high resolution photos taken and sent by email. Photos posted on here are limited in size and not that clear. The photos sent by email are far clearer and can be zoomed in to see every inch of this gun.

I have just forwarded the email I sent to Miki on 11th March containing 7 Close up photographs of any cosmetic defects. His response was "Looks OK mate" Have sent money. He cannot say he did not see these. Nothing else to say, I can post on here if needed. Absolutely, this is one reason why selling is far better face to face than sending guns through an RFD. Will probably not sell that way again !

Do you still have this case?

Yes, is it right or left handed? Can you post some pictures and where are you?

Yes, very ugly, an American fad especially for rifles. I was once foolish enough to let one of these guys put an inlay in a Miroku stock for me. Hated it and sold the gun! OK for the back of a chair but forget it on any gun you want to keep!

Is this gun still available? I sent email but no reply. Please advise

I recently lived in Carmarthen and used to Shoot at Telpyn Shooting ground near Amroth. They are open all week and have several skeet and trap layouts. Contact details are: Telpyn Shooting Ground Amroth Narberth, Dyfed SA67 8NR 01994 453 633 From Carmarthen follow A470, take A477 at St Clears, turn off at Red Roses to Pendine, take coast road towards Amroth, you will find Telpyn on this road on left. Hope this helps.

It seems that you have difficulty reading! The point made was that Professional gun fitting in my view is a waste of money. In other more simple words don't pay the earth for simple modifications when you can do much yourself. You also misunderstand point of aim. Trap guns are set to shoot high to give automatic lead for rising clays, they shoot considerably higher than point of aim. Such guns would not suit most people for sporting clays.

I am inclined to agree that professional gun fitting is probably a waste of money. A gun should feel comfortable to aim, length of pull is critical, you don't want to stretch to reach the trigger, neither do you want your thumb up your nose if it is too short. Stock length can be altered quite cheaply, greater length can be achieved by adding a thicker recoil pad, shortening has to involve cutting the stock and fitting a new recoil pad or butt plate. I have mofified length of pull many times over the years and never had a problem. Cast is less often a problem, most guns off the peg usually have sufficient cast to line up middle and fore sight properly. Too much cast can be adjusted by adding a cheek piece, a cheap option is to use a strap on leather pad as a cheek piece. Not enough cast, ie a "straight" gun is more difficult to sort out. Either adjust mounting if not too bad and hang your head more over the stock, if too severe then professional stock bending is the only proper cure but risky and expensive. Best answer is don't buy a gun with impossible cast! I have also seen before a left handed gun being used by a right handed shooter with no idea why he was missing! Next issue is height, for all my shooting I prefer a "flat" shooting gun which shoots to point of aim. Dedicated trap shooters prefer guns to shoot high to give them automatic lead on rising clays. The sight picture being a figure of eight formed by the front sight being higher than the mid sight. This may well be better for some people shooting DTL, Ball Trap etc but the same gun would not be suited to sporting or skeet clays. One gun for all in my opinion should shoot to point of aim. Height can be adjusted by adding comb risers to shoot higher if needed, lowering combs again means bending or cutting. Provided that the gun is a reasonable fit, there will always be compromises, greater attention should be given to technique. Proper gun mounting through constant dry shooting practise is needed and many hours of practise on challenging clays! Happy Shooting!
