I was at a GS today and saw a JC Higgins model 66 in 12ga. It was in decent shape with enough nicks and dings to know somebody had made considerable use of this gun.
The asking price was $190.
I 've been wanting to get a semi SG so that I might try shooting trap. I currently dont own any SG's, a fair amount of rifles and pistols, but no SG's. I ended up not getting it and have been second guessing myself since I got home.
So
What do you guys think of:
1- the price?
2- is this suitable for a cheap entry trap gun?
3- the gun itself. Does anybody have any experience with this model? Are there any known defects/problems?
Like I said, I'm looking for a cheap entry level Trap gun to see if it's something I'm going to continue. I'm looking used since I only have $300 to spend, So this is a cost -driven choice. Any other suggestions?
