Jay_Russell Posted April 14, 2016 Report Share Posted April 14, 2016 (edited) Had a play with one of these in my local gun shop today. Seriously considering it. Only downside is the stock finish was rather 'luster' but looked in great condition with a nice tight action. In vector multi chokes included Any pros and cons from people that have had one?

Junkyard Dog Posted April 15, 2016 Report Share Posted April 15, 2016 If the original finish is too shiny for your liking, it can be dulled down, but at the same time improve the finish Use rottenstone powder and water as a lube and super gently, following the grain polish the laquer, this will remove any fine scratches and dull the shine at the same time. But if you get too heay handed you can remoe the finish completeley.... 425, super gun, they just keep going forever, check the pins, its an easy change if it needs some and not expensive...

dougall Posted April 15, 2016 Report Share Posted April 15, 2016 had one since new in 2003/4 never missed a beat (missed a few birds & clays though)! If it is one of the later ones is chrome lined too....great gun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alycidon Posted April 15, 2016 Report Share Posted April 15, 2016 good gun, friend has a high grade 20 bore 425, he puts a lot of cartridges through it in a year and its still more or less as new despite maybe 10 years plus in his use. Recommended, providing it fits you. I find some Browning/Mirokus dont fit me. A Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
