Shoots like a champ. It was in rough shape prior to ripping it apart and refinishing it. There's now a period correct milled adjustable rear sight on it.

Eventually I'll make enough money to look at stuff like that, but I won't have the time.

The A5 has a moving barrel too. But you're right on the rotating bolt
Pretty sure it's the only time JMB used an axially rotating component. Virtually all his other designs are 2D...not that that's a bad thing.

There was the Browning 1897 rotating barrel pistol.

Had not caught that one. Looks like it never saw production but interesting nonetheless. Should have known JMB his own self wouldnt miss something that "obvious". Thanks for the heads-up!

Do you know what are the differences between the MKIII and the MKIV?
I had a MKII 6-7/8 stainless bull barrel for at least 20 years and was very happy with it but was needing cash for another project ... Set up at a gunshow to raise the funds ... priced it to where I didn't think it would sell, but it did. I replaced it with this stainless Hunter which I like even more ... Then they came out with the MKIV

I wonder how hard it would be to change that to a locked-breach design and chamber it for 9mm....

Ground up build; took forever (gas block pinning, forgot mag catch springs don't come with individual mag catch parts, somehow ordered the wrong style bolt catch, forgot to add pistol grip and selector to cart), but it's finally all together. Put 150 rounds in at the range this week sighting in the optics and couldn't be happier! Also an excuse to break out some photography equipment again

Optics are probably going to change at some point though, still feeling out my preferences.

Andy,

Did that little leather shell holder come with it?
Nice grab! -b

 

[Andy54Hawken]

Thanks Dean...
I traded a CVA flintlock pistol I put together for the Remington...
The guy that owned the 870 , thought it was a old antique...he still wanted it , even after I told it was a kit gun that I put assembled....
No on the shell holder... I had that for a long way now...got it at a yard sale many moons ago....

Something like this?

The picture color is hard to tell, but if thats wood then yes.
Ide never buy a plastic fal personally, ruins the idea of the gun to me.

Nice looking piece btw

 

[RogerJ]

It's not wood furniture. For what I paid for it I can get over the plastic.
