  • Is every cheap gun a bargain? Turns out NO!
    After i was tempted into this Holts bargain, i have shot it and enjoyed it for 6 months - until i gave it to Ant...

    I think you need to nickname Ant "Pigeon", since he sh!ts on everything you show up with.

    You just have to love Ant’s input. First he breaks the gun then suggests that melting it down and re forging and re making would be the only way to improve it. A really fun and entertaining video of a cheep old gun. TGS videos generally brighten my day, this hasn’t disappointed.

  • @regobar

    This gun had probably belonged to Mr. Esteban Azkue Larrañaga or Mr. Eladio Valduvi. Both national and international Trap and other clay shooting modalities. So the gun has its history on Spanish o/u short history gun making and professional sport shooting therefore there it is two good enough reasons to call it a bargain that can also be restored for a little and retain collector and shooter value. You ( TGS ) make really fun and comprehensive videos. Congratulations.

    I really like this gun. It's pretty without being over the top. You wouldn't get called "Little lord Fauntleroy" or something by your older family members or father-in-law for showing up hunting or throwing clays in a field getting ready for the season with this gun.

    I was stationed at RAF Chicksands from 90-93 and bought on for about the same price. Malcolm Jenkins (1976 British Olympic Trap Team) restocked it for me. Loved it for what it was and it shot great. Keep up the good work!

    For a £100 or $125, I'd say it's a great value. A great historical piece anyone can afford. I've seen firearms in worse shape go for more. I'm in the States, so you're hard pressed to find any firearms at that price.

    My comment is on the quality of your guests on your shows. I could listen all day to Simon Rienhold talk to the history of SXS shotguns - a true intellectual. I am fascinated with Ed Solomon's ability to turn the theory of shooting lnto reality. What can you say about Ant. He provides the comic relief that keeps your show enjoyable. By the way what is Ant's real name?
