Who Has a Searcy Double?
29/01/04 07:46 AM

Gentlemen, I have been looking for some time now for a good double in 470 NE, nothing so far has been right, and when it has been right has been so ridiculously expensive that it just does not make sense when for the same cost you could hunt a few elephant. I have looked at a few alternatives, Krieghoff is one but I have heard a few negative reports relating to double discharges and safeties. Chapuis is another but I have heard of a few quality problems with loose actions after relatively few shots.

So I am looking further a field and found the Searcy doubles. A reasonable price and the spec appears good. Does anyone have any first hand experience of these rifles, good or bad and has any PH had any experience of these rifles, how do they perform “in the wild”. How do they balance and point, what is the quality like, how robust are they, how reliable?

I would love an English double but the cost is just too high and the choice is not great, it seems there are many more English doubles in Australia and the US than over here.

Many Thanks

Phil
