Miroku 800 HSW Review | A 1970s Masterpiece 

I have got my dad's old 3800HSW which he paid $3800 AUD for back in 1979. About to start shooting competition with it after shooting my Winchester 101 for nearly 27 years! Awesome video to learn a bit about these guns. Thanks.

Sir, I think your holding my Holy Grail Over and under right there. Very nice indeed!

Wow, that was a blast from the past. I started comp clay shooting in the mid 70's with a Miroku ORE trap and then progressed to a 800W trap, both 30" F/F. I recall the "ringing" on closure of the action like it was yesterday. In a DTL/ABT squad there would be at least 3 Mirokus and maybe a Browning or a Shadow Indy. 100 bird DTL registered once a week and a few local "bale shoots" mid week in the summer months. Happy days, nostalgia's not what it used to be! Keep the vids rolling Matt.👍

Hello Matt, I grew up close to the Lotus cars factory back in the 70s they had a small clay ground opposite the factory run by the workers social club, I remember going there as a young lad, and sometimes the guys from USAF Lakenheath would come, on one occasion one of the American lads let me shoot his new Miroku, someone asked him what he did in the air force he turned and said he drove a Phantom !!!!!! . from that day I have wanted to own a Miroku . I hope you will be able to help me with that very soon thanks Mervyn

Great video as always 👍 How about one on Winchester 101s and Nikko shadows?

A great piece of modern gun history.

Great video. Please could you consider a video reviewing the Japanese Winchesters - 101, 5500, 6500 etc. Imagine if they were still making guns now?

This gun is super nice. I know it's rare but once you see this gun I want one. Just a lovely gun all rounded. Thanks for your time and knowledge I appreciate it.

Another great video full of useful information, well done Matt, thanks Adam

My Father still goes hunting with a Miroku Trap that he bought in 1973.By the years the woods were broken and replaced by custom made ones. If there was a way to send you pictures of the gun,hopefully you could provide details and help find parts of the gun..

That a very nice bite of kit. It a shame that a Higher Grade like that are not made now! Not sure about the ivory but hay it was the 70s - 80s Great review Matt

Lovely guns to shoot

great review , lovely gun

always look forward to your reviews a great looking gun pity you couldn't get it steel shot proofed a real stunner imo

Purchased a new 800s skeet in1979 wish I still had it

I have a model 600 Ore from 1976 been using steel for years. Chokes 1/4 and 1/2. No problem.

The ""thing" is a Japanese chrysanthemum emblem, the national emblem of Japan.

Thank you for your informative videos. I am in the USA and want to buy Miroku MK38 Sporter from your gunroom. What is the process?

Any news on the Beretta SL2 release and prices? I'm upgrading soon DT11 and krieghoff k80 are possibilities. K80 is difficult to find used here so new is $18000au Dt11 new are $15000 and from 10k used. Blaser F3 are 13.5k. Beretta 694 are 7k.

It will be a type 4 action so coil springs on the original miroku action, classic guns as with everything Miroku does

I wondered what the letters all meant, interesting.

So what is an 800 special w. ? 30inch, monti carlo

What a lovely piece how much is this gun please

They don’t make um like that anymore .....how much do you want for it?

Did some of the Japanese engravers sign their work?

They close with a nice ring..not like the later ones..they clunk

I’m sorry a fair bit of inaccuracies in this presentation. You should do more in-depth research before miss educating the public

Get your hair cut 🤣
