Sometime back in the early to mid 2000's it is believed a number of Americans got a DR completely free to heavily discounted in return for heavy touting especially on the net. They also used to rubbish all the other brands. I could paraphrase one post I remember which ran like this "Brand A has these problems, Merkel is made on "shotgun" actions, Brand B has these issues, for then other brands, Searcy, the sun shines from the arse end of the barrels ... "

About the same time Searcy became "popular", with one fool I remember commenting, it must be the biggest double rifle brand in the world ....

No I never got one, nor asked for one. Even though someone prompted me to enquire ...

Does this Searcy look good?

Sure. It looks fine. I have a friend that has a 450-400 3 inch and it shoots great. That is my only experience with the maker and it is positive. I prefer my Chapuis and if I was doing it over today I would look hard at the VC.

450-400, 9.3x74r and 7x65r.

I remember one of the Searcy Recipients saying that, ''the inside of Chapuis actions are like chicken guts'' or had strings and pulleys inside them .JJ Perrodeau ,being a Real Gunsmith says he backs the Chapuis 100% .I dont know whats going on in America, but they used to produce good stuff ,reminds me of an episode of the Simpsons showing a sign saying ,''American Quality '' ,the sign then falls to pieces .Im sure if i had bought a $900.00 Baikal 45/70 double rifle i would not have had any problems !!!!!!!!!!!

Shithispants at AR is a bit of a moron if you look at earlier posts than when he got the Searcy. Most of his problems are self inflicted, if you get the meaning. His posts actually kind of fun to read.

I don't know what to say about the problems with your rifle 500Boswell. Mine is a good shooting one with no flaws such as you describe.

Shootaway is a bit different ,but he keeps the Double Know Alls on AR entertained ,his rifle didnt shoot to sights and had a piece of wood floating around inside the action ,which caused it to lock up , that wasnt his doing ,although he still believes he has the best double in the world ???, i sent him a few PMs on AR about it until i got banned by the Gay Zionist AR Moderator
