Anyone ever noticed any issues cutting down a Over/Under the same way you cut down a side by side? I know these arent long range weapons at all, but have you noticed any horrible deviation in hitting the targets?
Anyone have pics of your SBS O/U’s i know they arent as popular as the traditional SxS in short form but i think they look good. |

There's no way in hell I'd cut one of my O/U's. Ugh. Makes me cringe.

Only issue I've found with mine, Richland Arms 10 ga O/U cut to 10.5, is having to push the barrels down to open the action far enough to load the bottom chamber.
Loosing 10+ inches of counter weight decreased the mechanical advantage available for opening the action. Sorry no pictures available right now Joat |

I purchased this 70s vintage Baikal Izh specifically to create a pistol gripped SBS:

Weld. Really interested in the pistol/birds head grip vs even a partially cut down full stock. But I know the stock would be more shootable. |

I think sawed off O/Us are absolutely wicked looking! Far easier for something to carry with the barrels both being inline with the action. Just set up my trust, but I think a sawed off o/u is in my not to distant future! Would prefer to get something common enough that I could get a stock for it, that way I can run it with a stock or birds head one.... |

The big potential issue is that while the barrels may be regulated properly at factory length they may not be at cut length.
You'll never know until you cut one. |
