Finally scored the Unicorn which as eluded me for many years, an Auto5 Sweet Miroku made with chokes. Might not sound all that special but these are rare up in these parts and I've only come across one for sale in the last few years and I waited too long and it was gone. Also I prefer the Japan guns as I mainly shoot clays so prefer the extra weight (over the Belgian Sweet) and the versatility of chokes. Looking forward to the post man dropping this honey off in the next few days! Heres a few dealer supplied pics as I know its what everyone wants to see lol...

Thanks guys! Another buyer was actually on other line with dealer when i called, and since he called first i had to wait while he decided what to do....for some reason he passed on it so I took it right away. Looks to be a few marks in the wood but nothing i can't live with |

I've sorta considered myself done with Auto-5's and the like, but I don't think I could have walked away without that one. Dandy and useful shotgun there! |
