I wish that I hadn't sold it now, but a friend was in need of a shotgun for dove shooting. The Super X1 has achieved kind of a "cult following" especially among target shooters.
Yes, I have a Model SX-1 from 1974. 28" bbl with modified choke---it's a beautiful gun and very well made. A bit on the heavy side but that's why trapshooters like it. I prefer it for clays but prefer my Model 59 for carrying in the field.
You should check the status of the recoil buffer before shooting yours---these tend to degenerate with time.
