New shotgun......

.........well, new to me, anyway!

Found this in the used gun rack back in March; I've never owned an O/U before, and since my 12 gauge SxS broke about 3 years ago, I've been looking for something to replace it.
It's a 12 gauge Remington SPR310, 28" barrels with choke tubes. Didn't get a 'bargain' on it, but I thought it was a fair price, and I was happy with it.
I finally got it out a couple of times in the past few weeks.....I can hit really well with it, so it will definetly be going out in the marsh and in the fields with me this fall. I have some 3" #4 bismuth that I've been hoarding for a while....think this gun is just the ticket to try it out in!
It only came with a full & modified tube, so I purchased a few extra tubes: skeet, I.C., and I.M.

Sorry about the poor quality of the pics......I'm not a great photographer.





BTW, that's not rust on the reciever in the first pic.....I think it's just glare. The gun doesn't have a nick or ding anywhere on it.....only a little wear around the safety.

My grandson has a 16 O/U pre Remington (Biakal) He's killed just about all the birds from Canada Geese, wild turkys down to woodcock with it. Still uses it, but his go to is now a Browning BPS Sp. Field (?) 16. At least got him going in the right direction gauge wise. I think you'll find it a very sturdy albetit a little heavy O/U. Enjoy
