Anyone Know about the VICKERS 12GA 3" SXS Double SLUG Gun?
Anybody know anything about these? I am considering it for slugs mainly but possibly Buckshot too for close in hogs...Any info is appreciated..
Specs are12ga 3" magnum and 23" Cylinder Bore barrels..7pds and double triggers...kinda a poor man's double! I have alot of heavy custom slugs plus factory Brenneke Magnum Crush plus even Dixie Tre-Ball!
I like the factory sights and the barrel lengths alot..may need a pad later...Decent Walnut too...

I would want a chance to see if the regulation is any good.

Most likely if it is regulated it is with Foster type factory loads.

Sabatti used to make a similar 12 ga double that they called the Leopard Gun. Certainly is an interesting shotgun. cheers Luke

A better gun was the British order of the Hungarian FEG Police Gun. Proper;y regulated, twenty inch barrels and tritium insets on front and rear sights. Much better than this thing shown by Vickers.
