Vintage pump shotgun
I am looking for an older model pump shotgun, preferably 12g to go with my collection, which consists of Win model 24 sxs 12g 1949, Beretta bl-4 o/u 12g 1968, and the misses has Savage Fox B sxs 20g.
I take these out skeet shooting usually 2-3 times a year, so they're not wall hangers.
Any thoughts on what to look for, as I don't currently have a model in mind? I have my eye on a H&R Topper model 88 12g as my single barrel/single shot, and a Mossburg 500A as the pump, but this might be too new for me!
Thanks
Ray

Winchester Mdl 97, Winchester Mdl 12 or Remington Mdl 17 or 31.

Re: Vintage pump shotgun
remington made the models 10 and 29, which were nearly identical to the ithaca guns in that they were bottom feed and ejection. i had one of the model 10's, but sold it years ago.
just recently bought a marlin 19, which is based on the marlin 98 series. these guns have an action similar to what you see on a marlin 93 rifle, in that the bolt is flush with the right side of receiver face. they have a bad rep for bolts not locking up correctly and coming back through shooter's faces, but this is related to parts failure which can be tested for. marlin issued a "do not shoot" notice on this entire series in 1947, but lots of cowboy action shooters use them if the rule makers allow.
