I know when I first met GSP follower who taught me gooseshooting, he used an escort 20g pump,and to my best recollection he didnt have any (or many )problems. He did have a malicious smile on the dial though when he got to trade it on a very tidy wee remington 20g P/A(a miserly $75 plus guns changed hands -tinass) and remains very fond of casting aspersions on my beloved escort likewise my beloved crusaders(hurricanes supporter you know -we understand!!!!)
maybe as youve demonstrated rest no1 (as a last choice reserve)and use the other as your no1 gun.actually a thought if second cant be repaired set it aside to recycle as a source of spares.money saved for lion brown and barrels of watties plus Seans super dooper custom long range rifle rig for possums at 1.5km.
oops apologies sean for lettin the possum outta da bag.
actually the thing i like about the escort is its simplicity ,and when i was on the"""""OTHER""""" site i got a carton of spares for $20.00 so what repairs ive done is a very easy swap jobbie in the garage.actually in all honesty the old girl has tolerated my use sand abuse bloody well and she still remains my 1st choice heavy artillery go to shotty.
would i have another escort -in a heartbeat.plain jane -dont mind shit and dust simple to strip and maintain.
hey cheers guys and happy shooting.
