I have a variety of basic pump, autoloader, and other shotguns, but no over/unders (never even shot one). I've always kind of wanted one, but not badly enough to pay the price. I see Century Arms is importing some "Arthemis" (I think Khan is the maker) shotguns that look and sound nice and are available for under $400. I believe they are made in Turkey. The photos look nice, but I've never seen or handled one. Anyone know anything about these? I wouldn't expect them to equal the $1,000 plus O/U guns, but would they be serviceable for upland bird hunting and informal clay target shooting? Any information on these, or other inexpensive O/Us (EAA, etc.) would be appreciated. I have a couple of friends who are also interested. Here's the description from the Century web site:
ARTHEMIS Model 20 Over & Under Shotgun, 20 Ga.
These Khan shotguns are beautifully crafted with classic styling and are a real treat to use. Each Khan shotgun features a tastefully engraved receiver, single selective trigger, ventilated rib and luxurious Turkish walnut furniture usually only found on much more expensive shotguns. The 12 and 20 gauge shotguns also come with 5 choke tubes! But all these high dollar features are found here at a real down to earth price! As a matter of fact, there are no other over/under shotguns in 20 or .410 gauge of this quality available at such a reasonable price! We anticipate that these will sell out quickly, as we have sold a large quantity by word of mouth alone - so avoid disappointment and lost profits this fall and order your Khan Shotguns today!
KHAN SHOTGUNS are produced by expert Turkish craftsman. They are superb shotguns that are a pleasure to use. 3" Chambers, Single selective trigger, 28" bbl, safety: manual with selector, steel receiver, walnut with recoil pad. 5 chokes. Condition: New
Thanks for any information you can give us.
