Weatherby Patrician 12ga

[JJEH]

Thanks to the internet I found a nice Weatherby Patrician shotgun for sale at a very good price.

Today it arrived and what can I say.... the wood is more beautiful than the sellers- nor my pictures are showing. Checkering is very sharp, just a couple dings in the furniture.

It has a fixed Improved cylinder choke and according to "The Book" it's made by Nikko - Japan in 1975/1976.

Will take it out to shoot soon. Maybe not slugs but it should be fine for all kinds of other shot, especially bird hunting...

I remember reading a test on one of those years ago. I have all of the Gun Digests. Maybe there will be an article in there.

I used to own one, I thought it was a good gun. Very underappreciated in the marketplace.
