Konor Posted June 14 Report Share Posted June 14 (edited) My first decent shotgun was a Nikko 5000 mk2 trap gun and the quality shone through. This is a lot of gun for the money, would easily reproof for HP steel and would be choked perfectly. Best of luck with the sale Gordon, someone will be getting a bargain. I had a 20 bore skeet gun made in the same factory as a classic doubles 101. It never once failed to fire or eject and printed both barrels one over the other with good even patterns. The guns from the olin kodensha plant are all great guns and worth double what they sell for, yours probably 3 times the asking. 👍 Edited June 14 by Konor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordon R Posted June 14 Report Share Posted June 14 (edited) Bought on whim and used twice. I don't shoot skeet any more and it fits neither of my lads, so it's just taking up space. In answer to a question - length of pull is a shade under 14.5" - see photo. Edited June 14 by Gordon R Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bruno22rf Posted June 15 Report Share Posted June 15 Not made in the Winchester factory but right next door to it I believe, the Nikko team would search through the Winchester parts and select the best actions/wood etc then pop next door and build the guns - many were hand engraved in some areas and slight variations can often be seen. Stunning guns being sold way under their true value IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordon R Posted June 18 Report Share Posted June 18 They are excellent guns, every bit as good as the Miroku / Brownings made in Japan. I still have the trap model of these. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
