B725 Posted August 16, 2022 Report Share Posted August 16, 2022 Today I posted about a gun that may have started off as an early Miroku that had been altered but was an interesting gun with a interesting history . I didn't ask for a value as I already know what my friend wants for it , so much so I have in actual fact decided to buy it myself and within five minutes of seeing it another friend said if I didn't buy he would. I cannot understand why it has been removed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
button Posted August 16, 2022 Report Share Posted August 16, 2022 Funny you ask that, I wondered that as well BTW I liked that Miroku, good choice buying that👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scully Posted August 16, 2022 Report Share Posted August 16, 2022 I’d like to know what model it was. Have never seen one like it; any ideas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B725 Posted August 16, 2022 Author Report Share Posted August 16, 2022 If I can find a suitable email address for Miroku I will send the serial number to them to try and find out what model it started out, if I get a reply I will let you know unless it gets deleted again, it is a lovely light gun I'm going to put a few cartridges through it tomorrow.

oldypigeonpopper Posted August 16, 2022 Report Share Posted August 16, 2022 (edited) Hello, it look very different than any miruko I've seen and that includes many years at Oxford clay club, saying this I would love to have it in my cabinet and I swore never to buy another shotgun 🤔🙄I see it's to late 🤔🙄😂😁 Edited August 16, 2022 by oldypigeonpopper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B725 Posted August 17, 2022 Author Report Share Posted August 17, 2022 I went out with the gun this morning and just fired half a dozen 1 ounce cartridges through it, it's going to be perfect for the walked up day's this season. I've spent age's this morning trying to find a contact email for Miroku so I can send them the serial number to find out more information but cannot find any, I have also emailed BASC to see if the can help identify the gun.
