A friend asked if I would be interested in a couple of Japanese O/U shotguns. I allowed as I might be, so he brought them over. He bought these in Japan, when he lived there, a number of years back.
They turned out to be Nikko guns, both model 5000. They have beautiful wood, vent rib barrels ( including between the barrels), and are both 12 ga. One has Mod/Cyl barrels, the other has skeet/skeet barrels. The guns are tastefully engraved. Neither barrel has choke tubes.
Each of the shotguns is in a white, plastic Nikko gun case, with papers.
I paid $1000 for the two of them. I have not been to the range yet. According to my friend, they are both unfired.
The same friend gave me a two year old Ft Knox Titan 37" safe, so at least I have a place to store the shotties.
He also has a Nikko Golden Eagle Model 7000 rifle in 30-06 that I will probably buy. Beautiful gun.
