Well nobody handled it except me. Today I went and picked it up myself. I can say that it handles like a dream, weight is on par with the beretta silver pigeon 12G and you get three shots. 3" magnum and steel proofed :clap:

It handles much different and better than the 12G version the akkar 3 28" 3.95kg model :doh:

I think I will write up the procedure in a flowsheet so others can easily import a firearm themselves in a week and not wait 12 months for a dealer.

I just was writing it up. It sounds complicated but in reality its pretty easy. The federal government wants the states to move away from dealers for private imports. You want it you should be able to do it without paying a middle man, which is exactly what I did.

Looking forward to seeing a fox drive with it. :handgestures-thumbup:

I just wish that Dickinson made a 20ga T1000.

The 28g is only 3.15kg but the cartridges is too limited. I have for the 20g, 36gr 3" #4 high pheasant loads as well which is more than enough power for small game.

How do those rounds go on foxes?

I bought a bunch of 3" 46gm #4 shot I've been wanting to use once they start coming to the whistle.
