Conditions are harsh and unlike the clients who arrive complete with the ‘Big Name’ weaponry, the Professional Hunters and the like prefer to sink their hard earned into a basic piece of reliable kit that’ll keep going for years - irrespective of the unsympathetic and abrasive treatment it’ll have to endure. Very popular in some of the more inhospitable parts of the world, I’m reliably informed that Africans have taken to them with enthusiasm, and having hunted over there and now tried a Miura I for myself I can understand why. Available in 12, 20 and 410, these basic smoothbores are regarded by their owners as good working tools - a fact substantiated by UK importers Highland Outdoors.
So new to the UK market that hardly anyone has actually heard of them, the new Boito Mirua I it seems is a serious selling piece of kit back home in Brazil where it’s manufactured by E.R.
