400NE,

I am finally glad to hear somebody call a spade a spade.

Searcy may make a useable double. I don't know, as I have never owned or shot one.

One thing I do know is that of all the Searcys I have seen in person and of all the photos I have seen of Searcy DR's, I have never seen one I could take home and hold dear.

Frankly, I can't understand all the fuss and puffing about Searcy DR's. Let's face it, he's not the modern day James Purdey, and he never will be.

Sorry if I stepped on some toes. Maybe too much coffee this morning. Just my opinions, everybody is entitled to his own. That's what keeps this big ball spinning.

Regards,
Curl
