George makes a fine gun with extreme detail, I have two bolt guns by him that are superb. Though this design has a few flaws in my opinion to be as useful as a typical designed double. The first being the rotary disengage -and re-engage- I found to be very awkward. The other thing I noticed was how the gun balanced in my hand, also awkward and heavy at the muzzle for the caliber. I never had a chance to shoot a double of his- I am sure they are accurate, but certainly expected of a gun over $20,000.00++ From what I understand very few were made due to little interest in the marketplace. Certainly a collectors item for a small group of folks that can appreciate the effort and very odd design. Just my thoughts.
