Safe opened again and kids say sell those guns you never shot so here is the first one. It's a Winchester Import Born in 1980 as a back up and never shot. Several years ago the Original owner decided that it was time to take it out but by this time he was shooting a release trigger. He sent the trigger to Phillips who made it into a Release or convertible back to pull trigger. Unfortunately, the owners health tumbled before the trigger was returned and he was unable to shoot any more and the gun was put up for sale and I purchased it several years ago. I took the gun to my stock maker / Gunsmith and we lasered the barrel and it's 90 to 100% HIGH. There was no use in me trying to shoot it because In OLD and grew up with Remington 870's and 1100's and Model 12's that shoot 60/40. The fallacy that all TM's shoot flat appears to be just that a Fallacy! This gun is NEW, in the original case with even the original sleeve barrel and stock covers and every serial number matches wood, metal, trigger , barrel etc... I'm asking $5250 for a new Perazzi single barrel Trap gun and I'll pay for the ride, Buyer pays any additional Insurance - Hagglers pay both! Don TM-1 Perazzi Info: 34" barrel untouched as delivered from the Factory Monte Carlo Stock - Neutral - as most were back the No palm swell seeing that was not a thing back then Barrel Stamped FULL choke .041+ ( Frank Little would have Loved this one!) Original Case and sleeves Standard 14 1/2" LOP untouched Winchester Import with tapered Rib Please feel free to contact me via PM for any additional questions about any of the above information Don
All Tire Kickers PM's answered, people with serious interest should reach out via PM to me and we can discuss how you can own this Beautiful TM-1 and shoot like Frank Little, great goal to set!... Don
I've been asked if this is a type 3 or type 4, Perazzi people know TM-1's and TMX guns are separate family from MX and Comp series guns. TM/TMX guns have a button release in the front of the forend and MX Family guns have levers under neath the middle of the forends. These are totally different designs and are not interchangeable. Thanks Don
Buyers, I've been asked if this gun is Factory Original and the answer is yes all serial numbers match including Wood, Iron, Receiver, and Trigger. The Trigger has been up-dated to either a release or pull and is presently a Release system but convertible back to pull very easily and guaranteed for life by Phillips GunSmithing. Open to discussion via PM anytime... Don
I'm sure Perazzi test fired it but the Original owner told me it was never fired, he had a stroke before the trigger was returned from Phillips and never got a chance to shoot it or any other gun again. Don
I had it lasered to see where the POI was with a figure 8 set up so I could decide if I wanted to put a PFS on it o0r have a soft-touch done to original stock. It showed a 90/10 to 100% high POI, I shot 60/40 to 70/30 at best so I decided not to sink anymore money into it and let someone have it that could use it as it was built to shot. Don
