Hi, Sam -

Yes, they are indeed made in Turkey.

I see it says Utas-Turkey inside in front of the firing pins. Does this mean this gun is made in Turkey?

There are some great Elite’s available from a very knowlegeable dealer; you may contact him @ http://www.billhanusbirdguns.com. Bill has some available at fantastic “close out” prices. S & W developed a super product in the Elite; well made and more than friendly pricing but their timing coincided with the financial/mortgage debacle and the gun bombed-not because of quality but because the market collapsed. My guess is these will become very collectable and wonderful to shoot. I am taking mine to Argentina for a workout. Why would anyone want to add 2 inches to a 14 1/2″ LOP? you would have to shoot it standing in the next room…

My Gold Elite (Product no. 822803) has extractors only, no ejectors. Fixed chokes IMP/MOD. No unnecessary gadgets here. Just a clean, beautiful but simple shotgun. Thank you S&W.

They have selective ejectors…

A joy to carry, shoot, and look at while upland hunting!

the S&W website does not say if these guns have ejectors or extractors? Any idea?

Hi, Daryl –

I don’t think Smith sells products like stock pads. Have you looked at the LimbSaver? I don’t think it will give you quite two inches, but it should help, and is an economical alternative to actually working on the gun.

Hope this helps.

I need to extend the stock of my Gold Elite by two inches. Does S&W sell a stock pad seperately that I can istall without having to send the gun to a gun smith?

Hi, Nero –

Welcome to ScopedIn.

I don’t have an answer for you. Which models are you referring to?

You might have better luck posting this question in the forums, too.
