Could you retype the price? A letter sneaked in there. Probably a "1" but don't want to guess. |

I have a 16-4 ga. Francott Knockabout with an english stock and a identical barrel specs. I can attest to its being a well made gun. Mine has 2 1/2" chambers, weighs 6 1/2 lbs, and handles like a dream. The price also sounds extremely fair. |

Nobody likes a 16 bore? Nobody likes 26" barrels? Nobody likes cheap imports? MDC |

Francott is not a cheap import. Actually, its a well made gun. Its only called a Knockabout, because it has no engraving. And that was a time when engraving was all done by hand. |
