I am a big fan of SXS slug guns and bought myself a Brignoli (Italian) sxs slug gun, yes it is made as a slug gun.

If all you want is to put rifle sights on it and blued, I would just visit some LOCAL gunsmiths to you. Almost any smith can do that well.

What else do you need done to it? Shorten the barrels??? Any smith can do that too.

Okay. So go to byers.

But i am still not clear--beyond what was typed---what need sto be done to this sxs. Bluing (check); shorten the barrels (check); Put rifle sights on it (check) [you could probably do the second two very easily].

What else?

bwan--OHHHH. Jeeeez. You want a "rifled" double barrel slug gun... Holy Toledo. In effect a .720 double rifle. I don't know many gunsmiths anywhere that would take that on. Jason Simpkins comes to mind. His brother is Bonanza here on this forum, but I do not know for sure if he would take on that project.

I am having a 20ga sxs gun built, once complete I will be more than happy to share the smiths particulars with you.
