Hello Jeremy,

I am interested in your Bradshaw .500NE.
Can you please let me know how much it weighs and do you feel it is quick to reload?I shoot and hunt with double rifles and they need to be able to reload rapidly after shooting both barrels.

Perhaps, like most of us today, you just did not have time to shoot it, but wondering if you disliked something about it to cause you to sell it. I shoot English doubles, so the Bradshaw would be a radical move for me.

My cell is 203-804-3030 (call anytime - yes anytime)
email is:jburdacki@msn.com

Is the $12,500 price set in stone? I am a serious buyer.
Thank you,
Jim Burdacki

A picture of the open action from the top might be a good idea.


Life itself is a gift. Live it up if you can.
