Miroku MK60 High Pheasant

[Fargo]

Looking for a 20b version.

Has anyone got one and do they have the low stocks like most Miroku do? Someone mentioned they had higher dimensions but can’t find it online

There are two High Pheasant II on Guntrader. New £4,195.

I would make sure you hold some in a shop. I have a 12b mk60 game 2003 and a 20b grade 5 2017. Both I find to have a very similar sight picture and about the same as a browning. I've held a friend's mk60 universal from 2012 and it felt very different, much lower in the comb. Also both of mine don't have mid beads which I think is less common and how I prefer.

Good advice . I want the earlier fixed choke one and normally Miroku are way too low for me but beloved the HP version was higher in the comb

The High Pheasants have high stocks as standard 

[enfieldspares]

I saw a Dave Carrie video some three years ago where he'd had a "standard" Miroku fitted by them with, I think a "trap" stock? Or was it the other way around? A "trap" Miroku fitted with a "standard" stock? And that the issue was going to be addressed in the future by making that combination an off the shelf product to be then known as the High Pheasant?

Dont know if this is relevant to 20b, i would have thought so

Ok thank you

I asked the Browning/Miroku rep about the High Pheasant 12 bore a while back and he said it was 36mm drop at comb - too high for me. I would say it’s highly likely that the 20 bore is similar. If you ask a gun smith (as opposed to a standard gun shop), they will measure the drop for you.

Good idea and I want one to scratch an itch.

Will have stock shortend a bit and leather covered pad put on it and if can afford it the pistol grip made round to match my B25.

I have both 12 and 20 HP in 32" both purchased new and still unaltered, and using a level and ruler the drop on both are identical around the 35mm range but the 20 is 2mm or 3mm longer in stock length, the 12 stock is obviously a lot thicker around the pistol grip.
