Cheap used O/U
Posted: Tue Feb 05, 2008 1:36 pm
I took an old Angelo Zoli fighter out for a test shoot yesterday. Not one of the Antonio Zoli guns an Angelo. I think it was made by the drunken brother or something. They went out of business in 1987 and the last coulple of years they were produced they were run by the bank that took over the loan or bankruptcy or what ever it is in Italy.
I shouldered and swung with it pretty well I guess because it was my first time to shoot an O/U. That was why I was looking at an inexpensive gun because I didn't know If I would like an O/U or just stick to my Pintail. My son however had a blast shooting it and was wondering if we could get him an O/U too in a 12. He's been shooting a 20 semi Charles Daily. So it looks like I will be shooting my pintail for another season and my son wil move up to the new/old 12. $200 out the door on this one. hope the firing pins make it for at least this next bird season.
SO does anyone have any old chokes for one of these laying around. Let me know. thanks
Jim
