I REEEEEALLY want a double barrel shotgun and most are out of my price range. I was looking at the Spartan guns and think they look pretty darn good for the money. I mainly want it for shooting and small game hunting. I just really like the look and feel of a side-by-side. Any thoughts on the Spartan guns? How much should I expect to pay for the field (blued reciever) sxs? I am more concerned with durability then looks, although I like the rather "spartan" look of the guns as opposed to the super fancy ones I have seen before.

spartan side by side shotgun
I have two spartan sxs (12 & 16 ga) I was surprised on the workmanship and wood. Very good for the price. The wood to metal fitting is ok not the best in the world. They are a bit heavy (More than what the catalog states). These are good workman like guns. Nothing fancy but they work. I have a gut feeling they won't be around so I'd snap one up. By the way, the 16ga is built on a 12ga frame so don't be surprised. I like these better than the Savage 411. They seem to be better balanced, at least mine our. Hope this helps. Take care, good hunting and God bless!

I have a Baikal pre (spartan) O/U. Pretty decent and reliable.
