to say Im pis--- fuc--- really annoyed is putting it mildly.

not going to be SxS just a single with exposed hammer for bush hobbiting and smoking the odd wallaby when I source some black powder.

Keep the other tube as a functional 12 gauge then it will be a cape rifle. The sort of thing for people who arent sure what theyll stumble across and want to be prepared for all eventualities.
Ive got a huski one in 16 gauge, and 9.3x57 brilliant bit of kit.
