Good looking gun, i've not seen a lot of talk on the forum about these, but reviews look pretty good on the gun. Nothing like having a new gun to try..keep us updated on what you find out on the performance of the gun....I wondering if you can get a pistol grip stock for the gun...i just don't own a turkey gun without a pistol grip..

I modified a speed bead to fit mine. My biggest gripe with the gun is the trigger, needs some work.

yes I'm having the same problem with the trigger will be sending it to rob Roberts for some work after turkey season

I patterned mine today with Nitro Company #7s and Indian Creek .555. Looks like it will make a nice little turkey gun.  It has 26" barrel I put 219 pellets in 10" circle @ 40 yards from muzzle end of barrel.

Same here but it's a little low at 40, I changed shims and plan on shooting again this week to see if it raised my pattern

I put a set of 6mm tru glo sights on mine. I was going to get it drilled and tapped for a fastfire but I couldn't get it done in time.

Burris fast fire for me it makes aiming a lot easier.
