Royboy Posted November 1, 2011 Report Share Posted November 1, 2011 Hi ive just bought a new gun today and not sure what chamber it is. He did say it was steel shot approved. I know this question is asked a lot but i still dont get it ! Ive got a certificate that says Longitud Recamara 76 ? does this mean it has 3" chambers so there for can be used with heavy steel Loads ? It also has a picture of what looks like the scouts sighn stamped on ! Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HDAV Posted November 1, 2011 Report Share Posted November 1, 2011 I can't tell you can... but yes the fluer-d-lys does look like a scout sign. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WelshLamb Posted November 1, 2011 Report Share Posted November 1, 2011 Whats the FLuer-d-lys mark look like ? Scout sighn ?? If this gun has both of them Can i shoot any 3" steel shot load with this gun ? A quick google search tells me this gun has 3" chambers, so yes you can shoot steel magnum loads - BUT... I would pop back to your gun dealer first and ask if you're unsure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HDAV Posted November 1, 2011 Report Share Posted November 1, 2011 Its a HUBERTUS 12g O/U. Its brand new and said its made by Zabala i realy like it apart from its not got a automatic safety catch I dont get why people like safety catches? a Closed gun is a loaded gun and should never point at anything you dont want to kill....

Royboy Posted November 1, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 1, 2011 I dont get why people like safety catches? a Closed gun is a loaded gun and should never point at anything you dont want to kill.... I never do point a unloaded gun at anyone never mind a loaded gun mate. I just like a automatic saftey thats all. Ive allways had them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HDAV Posted November 1, 2011 Report Share Posted November 1, 2011 Fair enough if it's what you are used to, but i don't see how they are "safer" most guns it's a link in the mechanism ask the dealer to see if the part is available. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike525steel Posted November 7, 2011 Report Share Posted November 7, 2011 You get used to it. I always had auto safes until this last time And it also makes you think more. Safety safety safety. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poontang Posted November 7, 2011 Report Share Posted November 7, 2011 To answer your original question, YES, it has 3"(76mm) magnum chambers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mpk Posted November 7, 2011 Report Share Posted November 7, 2011 (edited) Yes it has 3" chambers and the fluer de lys (scout sign) means it is proofed for high performance steel.
