Yes, I think is was 1986. I got Shotgun News back then. Ashland did a half-page ad for these. I thought they were slick and had a FFL buddy order one for me. When it arrived he called me. I asked how it looked and he said "That front sight takes some getting used to..."


It was my "Canoe Gun" when I fished around Mobile.
