Aloysius:
Like other members I traded up for my Rigbys. I started collecting single-shots twenty years ago. My strategy was to buy the best at a good price and it would hold it's value. Lucky for me that I found a DR dealer looking for single-shots. I would caution priorities first. Have a solid plan and stick with it. Perserverance pays off. Also, you can never ask too many questions. Read everything you can and, when looking at used guns...if your in doubt, there isn't any.
