Thread: baikal

I have both the early model escort 3"magnum(2stage manual adjustment ) and the baikal O/U which has been opened out to 1/2 choke by C404,and contary to popular belief both these are bloody wicked
.Incidentally the latest escort shotties got bloody good reviews ,not forgetting for those of snob inclination that a lot of these turkish guns are actually the italians budget version of their own trendy ones.
Stoeger is in a similar vein.
my last buy was a wee boito gameking which I started out with in the mid 1970s as a "mitchell gamekingSxS". thats a cracker for the pigeons&rabbits.
my advice to anyone is talk to those in the know when considering a buy ,but also try guns.handle the bloody thing ,if needs be go away have a long think and come back in a weeks time and try it again.Believe me the gun you want will stick out like a dogs nuts and you'll know instinctively its the one.
