great build and a quality shotgun for sure. I’ve had no issues out of it

Well. The good news is that it is a pretty nice-looking shotgun. The bad news is that it left the factory without ever being assembled. I know this because the forearm wasn't fit to the shotgun. Apparently when CZ shotguns are manufactured they don't bother putting all the pieces together before it goes in the box. A call to CZ customer service was met with a "Yeah, some of those guns are REAL tight... you can send it to us and we will check it". Well if they can't bother "checking it" when it's made, why trust them with it now? That's what you really like when you buy a new gun -- sending it back unfired because it was not "checked" when it was manufactured. A little trouble-shooting followed by 30 minutes of careful work with some sandpaper took care of the problem. I used to be a big fan of CZ firearms, but I had a similar experience with a CZ 550 which had the annoying feature of dropping the magazine on the ground after every shot. I don't think I will be buying another CZ any time soon.

Great looking SxS and shoots well. The only con is the fixed chokes only. I had two gunsmiths take a look at installing chokes it both said it could not be done. Still a great skeet, quail, dove gun.

I have only shot one box of shells at clays, but it mounts easily and is well balanced .think I’m going to love it.

Excellent bang for the buck.
I purchased the Sharptail in 16 gauge as an inexpensive SXS upland gun so I would not have to travel with one of my more pricey doubles. I have seen quite a few Sharptail's on the sporting clay clubs I frequent. They have all seemed to be solid, well built guns for the money. When I unboxed my new gun I was very impressed with the wood furniture. It was actually a pretty nice piece of wood with very functional checkering that is not gaudy. The case hardening was very attractive, especially on the false side plates. The fit between the wood and metal was well executed. overall a very nice looking shotgun.
The gun was advertised as weighing 7lb. 3oz. which is a tad heavy for a 16 gauge upland gun, but thought I could end up with one that was on the lighter side. I weighed the gun and it was 7lb. 13oz. The gun is built on a 12 gauge frame. It is not exactly what I would consider an ideal upland gun but would rather break or loose a 1k gun than a 3k-7k gun.
I have shot a little over a flat of shells at sporting clays in the week I have had the gun. it is well balanced, points good, and the single trigger is very crisp with just a bit of take up. The selector works very well but would still liked to have had double triggers. For shooting sporting clay sub-gauge fun matches with a 16 or dove hunting it should do just fine. I did take a black marker and covered the front (white) bead that drew my eye to it every time I looked down the barrel.
Overall it is a dandy gun. well made and nice looking. It is not a Purdey, Churchill, H&H, Parker, or even a Browning BSS. But for the money, a very good Buy.
