garjo Posted September 2, 2010 Report Share Posted September 2, 2010 Need some info on Miroku MK38 - not too sure about. Are they trap guns or can they be used for sporting clays. See a lot of MK38's used for trap. Answers appreciated. Ta Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seeker Posted September 2, 2010 Report Share Posted September 2, 2010 (edited) Believe they originally came out as fixed choke trap... then many were converted to sporters and multi- choked. Then they introduced a sporter as standard. Nice guns, well made and finished. http://www.shootinguk.co.uk/guns/301059/Mi...gun_review.html Edited September 2, 2010 by seeker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Windknot Posted September 2, 2010 Report Share Posted September 2, 2010 They come in both Trap and Sporting versions. The trap guns have a high comb, beavertail forend and fixed chokes- full and 3/4. The sporters usually have Teague Invector Plus multichokes, and slim forend and a lower comb on the stock. Some sporters do have fixed 1/4 and 3/4 chokes.

Dave T Posted September 24, 2010 Report Share Posted September 24, 2010 Hi there, I use a Grade 3 Teague sporter purchased new September 2009 - Nothing else came close for fit, value and finish and I love it to bits. I did change the forend for a trap one though because I hate schnabel forends Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jinxy72 Posted September 25, 2010 Report Share Posted September 25, 2010 great guns with a great pedigree ... i know the trap version is condsidered one of the best trap guns on the market ... and prob the best due to cost ( as the others are 2-3 times the price ) ... the sporter version is exactly the same but with a sporter stock and forend fitted ( unless the trap gun has an high rib then its different again ) U wont go wrong if u buy one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordon R Posted September 25, 2010 Report Share Posted September 25, 2010 I have used Miroku MK38s (and their variant XTs) for about 15 years for Sporting. I still use a Beretta 682E Gold Trap model and have a grade 5 MK38 Trap, which my youngest uses for Sporting. They shoot flat to the point of aim, which is just how I like them.

whiskymac Posted September 25, 2010 Report Share Posted September 25, 2010 I have an MK38 Teague Sporter, I'm fairly new to sporting clays but it does everything I need when I point it in the right spot (not that often ). Solid gun, mines has 30" barrels and feels just right, I shouldered a 32" at the local gunshop and it felt totally different......seemed too heavy for my liking, although quite a few shoot them with the longer barrels. The standard recoild pad is a bit of an odd shape for me, but may well fit you fine (and it's easy enough to change if you want). Only thing I would change if I could would be the engraving, I would prefer a plainer action.....though I do like the nicer timber on the higher grade guns.
