I am like Backman. I would love to have a double in the 5K range. I don't care so much about looks (fancy wood and engraving), but do want a "quality" gun that will last and function reliably.

In regards to he gun in the price range that you are talking about at the SCI convention, is it a "good buy", or should we just save our money and get a Searcy for twice the price?

Thanks for all the good info. Do you have a link to a website that gives some information on a gun in this price range?
