All:

Here is Mike's Original Posat on the other site:

good morning all, I am new to this forum and would like to ask aquestion which may help me in the near future. I plan on ordering a new H&H double Royal in late March/early April. I have supplied all the requirements I CAN THINK OF to Patrick at Holland, which I have listed below. As a forum can any of you out there think of anything I have missed which is a necessary spec ? Below is current specs

iron sights, 50 yds and 100yds but also rear aperture that folds down into rib

Hollands proprietary scope mount
