Hi Bake,

I think the previous posters are spot on in their advice. I just wanted to chime in because its nice to see another guy my age on these forums. I'm 28 and own two vintage double rifles. For the money, I'd rather purchase a vintage double simply because they are just plain neat. The history is part of the nostalgia with these rifles. Spend some time shopping for a double that really rings your bell. Don't settle. If it doesn't make your eyes pop out of your head, your tongue flop out of your mouth, and your heart race, its not the gun for you. And chances are if the gun does all that for you, it'll do the same for another buyer when it comes time to sell it.
