Yup.

Glad you enjoyed it as I did.

I spurn 90% of "tacticality" out there. That and the zombie apocalypse crap is getting really boring for me.

I didn't know that the parts on these were not interchangeable because they were mated and unique to their own action.

I now found something that premium cigars and these guns have in common:



"Totally [done] by hand."

That Turkish walnut they use on these is strikingly gorgeous too! It never ceases to amaze me. Ditto for the Italian shotguns, ie Fabbri and Piotti, etc.

no denying they are functional pieces of art. those guys apprentice for years. the wood that is centuries old.

if its all the same to you guys, i'll keep my $250 remington and save the couple hundred $k for a piece of land in the hills to hunt birds with my beater 870.

until i win the lotto of course. then we fly to london for a custom fitting of our new bespoke multi guage set

Could buy used and afford the acreage, these guns last for generations.
