IOF SxS 12 gauge finish.

Post by Mack The Knife » Wed Feb 21, 2007 7:27 pm

Is it true that the later models had painted/powder coated barrels instead of bluing?

Thanks.

...all 28"barrel guns by IOF were powder coated and not blued......U find blueing in 30" IOF Guns only..

Art_Collector,

Did one barrel length precede the other or did IOF offer them simultaneously in both lengths?

Thanks.

30" barrel preceded the 28" barrel shotgun which replaced the longer barrel version(30")

Thanks, penpusher.

How many shots do you think the later version is good for before trouble starts creeping in on these guns?

What are the usual drawbacks of these guns and can they be corrected to a satisfactory working condition?
