At least up here the French actions are out there. The last one I bought is the Verney Carron 12 ga action and as I mentioned I will have to make a new complete forearm and trigger guard but the $100 price tag was too much to resist so I own it. I got that gun out of Penn, and another at a gun show we did in Bangor for $175. The French guns are real sleepers as are a lot of the europian guns British is spelled with $ signs so the French guns end up being quite the bargan.
