At this point, since my purchase of the Krieghoff got screwed up, I want to talk to a good 'smith before I spend money on a used double....reliability issues, value, etc...what to look for and what to avoid. I figure if I start out with the fellow who will be my 'smith he will have an interest in what I buy.

Having someone with experience, who has seen and worked on a large variety of double rifles and who probably has strong feelings about certain double rifles would seem to ve very, very helpful.
