I handled one once. It was a heavy, unbalanced turd.
The secret to a long life is to try not to shorten it.

Not a fan.
There is a double barreled bolt rifle too. Not a fan of it either.
I learned long ago you can't reason someone out of something they don't reason themselves into.

Imagine slogging through the marsh, lugging that huge gun, and dragging a bunch of decoys at the same time.

it looks heavy but according to spec sheets it is only a pound or so heavier than a lot of two barrel over and unders , but as many as three heavier than a couple , but balance probably would make it feel even heavier , I saw one of the Brownings was only .2 lbs lighter

Yes I have used one on a duck hunt. It worked about an hour then would not shoot the third shot. It is very heavy but that kind of helps with recoil. I have a close friend that is a dealer and he says that of the 20 or so he has sold more than half of them have come back due to malfunctions. He is dropping them, for that matter he is dropping all of the Chiappa line due to poor quality.

Never seen or touched nor do I want to.
Literally the ugliest thing I've ever seen.

I wouldn't mind having one and a cutlass with matched engraving for when I play pirates with charlesb.
Don’t roll those bloodshot eyes at me.
