and plan to shoot it a lot.
A local club throws a Pump Gun shoot every year. ATA targets, anyone can shoot but prizes go to people who shoot pump guns, singles, caps, and doubles.
I've been looking for a LH Model 12 for years so I could shoot this event but no luck.
Wanted something a little different from an 870. A few days ago my LCS showed me this.
Model 31 Remington. Over the years it had a few things done, new wood (laminated walnut, maple) 32" barrel with choke opened from full to imp. mode and at one time it was reblued.
Action is about the smoothest I've felt on any pump, shoots about 60/40.
I have the rest of this week to get use to shooting it, but should be a fun shoot.
According to the book I have, the Model 31 was made from 1931 to 1949, I was 4 years old when the last one was made, SN puts in about mid range between those dates.
Just like me, being old doesn't mean you can't be fun.:wink
