I think I saw where Boomstick Jay had commented on them but don’t remember what he said other than they were nothing like the old SKB’s.

SGT. ELI 35882 GUNFIGHTER Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 The SKB guy in our area got one sent to him, opened it up, looked it over, buttoned it up and returned it to owner. He said everything was different inside, and didn't want to touch it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buckshot Sheridan Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 If they are being done in Turkey, the actual manufacture is probably Huglu. Same people who make them for CZ. Might need some cleanup, but I’d expect it to be generally well built. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now hope you're not inferring that the Turkish made shotgun is not of good quality. Turkey makes some real OUTSTANDING shotguns. Phantom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lefty Wheeler Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 I looked into the new SKB SXS in the 200 Field series. This is the least expensive model. List price is 2100.00 if memory serves me. Unfortunately the 200 is discontinued, at the time they had 26 left in stock. If I purchased all they would be 1800.00 each. Then put extra work into them and didn't feel it would be a good investment. After just looking at the schematic in the sales flier I felt it would be an easily tuneable gun. The springs are in back of the hammers and it has a mechanical trigger reset. Nice looking shotgun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
