AUSTRALIAN CLAY TARGET SHOOTING NEWS April. 1975

You swing the gun up smoothly, leading the high one until your shot

smashes the clay target cleanly. So easy with a Stirling Miroku

Over and Under. There's a feeling of excitement in the fine

balance, the easy swing, the ready respqnse of these guns. So many

things about them will make fanatics out o i casual clay shooters.

Finger the carefully wrought scroll engraving, the finely polished blued

metal, the superb walnut stock. Check these features: Exclusive

hammer design permits equal percussion power on both barrels;

the single selective trigger-recoil activated; poweriul automatic

ejectors; thumb safety slide that also serves as barrel selector; plus

a grooved wide ventilated rib io r instant sighting.

Why use a broad rib model? Longer and level sighting plane stops head lifting and the heavier barrels keep you swinging-cures "gun stopping". Heavier weight reduces recoil and flinching. Broad rib stops miraging. Forward weight balance stops you jumping gun under pressure, gives you a steadier second barrel. Since 1893, Miroku has been producing quality shotguns for countless sportsmen throughout the world. Although modern technology has greatly improved methods of production, i t has not replaced the skilled craftsman so badly needed in the manu- facturing of quality shotguns. Craftsmanship is not an idle term for Miroku shotguns, but is meaningiul in the construction and care with which each shot. gun is made. A Miroku shotgun will become one of your most prized posses- sions. It will serve you, your children and their children very well. What better investment can you make?
