Ripp, tremendous value for money. AYA started making shotguns for the English trade in 1958 after being supplied with a Holland INMHO they are the best value for money in the world in the S/S English gun style. Do not buy one with a single trigger but then I wouldn't buy an English gun with one either ! Secondhand No.2's are amazing value especially if you can get one 15 years old or less. I have a 20 bore No.1 if you would like some pics, best, Mike p.s. read Terry Wieland and Mike McIntosh on AYA.

Sorry for not responding sooner--our chasing mule deer--the rut is on..

The AYA #2 I was looking at were actually in the gun library at Cabela's --they had 4 No 2"s--two in 16 gauge and two in 20 gauge.

Looking at them, I had the same thoughts you mentioned..they seem to be an amazing value for the money..been thinking of a 16--one I really think it is a great upland gauge and two, not that many around..in my neck of the woods and pretty much everywhere else I go--99.9% are 12 or 20--which are great--just want something different..

Would love to see photos of yours fi you don't mind..

Thanks again to all who responded--appreciate your input...
