Picked this up the other day. I had never seen/heard of them before. Haven't shot it yet, but can't wait. Just slowly adding to my colleciton!

Well my pictures are not working for some reason, on my avatar or in my thread, hmmm.
EDIT: Got it to work, seems like every forum is different, I will get it!

Looking forward to hearing about how this one shoots - those 11" guns seem like they'd be a useful bbl length.

Whoa. Now that thing is neat. I'd love to have one of those models. It makes my Leinad model D look like a toy.

Any idea how much that weighs? It looks like you could keep some good control with it. Definitely looking forward to see how it does for you. Seems like it could be fun doing a little small game hunting with it as well.

I don't know how much it weighs, it isn't too bad, but feels heavy enough to offsset some of the recoil hopefully. My next trip to the range I will try and get a short video of it. Would really like another one, and to have wood furniture for it. Already have too many projects though!

Is that barrel interchangable with the shorter barrels like the dd. It could offer lots of versatility. I think Ive seen one before with a stock on the back that tied in with the grips to make a 410 shotgun. I would be cool to do so much with one gun. Billlau.

Billau,
I think they do make a shot-gun version, but if you put a stock on this you have created a short barrel or AOW, which would require a tax stamp to be legal. I could be wrong about this, but pretty sure that would be the case, especially since it will shoot 45LC.
As for using the shorter barrel on it, yes I would think you could. I plan on obtaining more of these, mostly because I think they look cool as all get out, I know they will never really be worth much. When I saw this one I purchased on the spot without knowing a single thing about it, there isn't much that catches my eye that way, but the longer double barrel just screamed "COOL". LOL I have had SO many comments on it from anyone that sees it. I think they would look so awesome with some nice wood furniture. Might also help the look of it if I could blue it.
Hoping to get to the range this weekend, will give you guys a report when I make it!

WOW! Believe me when I say that that is the most interesting and most attractive Leinad I've ever seen. Sent from my DROID BIONIC using proboards

Very nice pictures. Is that real wood or kind of a faux finish?

It's a faux. I painted the plastic furniture. Trying to learn how to do different species of wood. Not happy with the metal parts now, may see if I can blue them or something.

Well excelent job on the paint then. Fooled me. What finish are you thinking of using on the metal parts.
