cz double guns

[hofts]

just curious if anyone has handled or fired the cz o/u or side by sides. the price sure seems right. the article in rifleman sure seemed to think they were alright. just wanting some real world input. thanks

Don't know about thier O/Us, but here is what I know about the SxSs that I own. I have had a DeHaan SO 12 ga. that I use for waterfowl, been using it for 3 years. It is a very good duck and goose gun, been through the devil in the marshes, wet freezing rain, snow, mud etc. Now I also have a CZ Bobwhite 28 ga., again it is a great grouse and woodcock shotgun. Very light and responsive and I can carry it all day. The 2 guns are made by the same manufacture Huglu, but there are is a difference, for one thing the DeHaan has side clips and the CZ doesn't. To me so what, I like them both. For the money I think they are a great buy.

Hey Hofts,


I also have two Dehaans (SO-SXS & S2 O/U) that are manufactured by Huglu and they've been good guns for the money. Can't vouch for the CZ's but they are manufactured to different specs than the Dehaans.

I am not sure of the volume of shooting that you do but this was a large consideration in my purchase decision. These guns see pretty light duty-not sure how they would hold up to high volume shooting. Good luck and look around!

Huglu in Turkey makes the CZ Bobwhite. The gun got a nice writeup in the current National Rifleman.
