Thank you for your information on the double. I hope this fellow will do OK but to pay 36,000 Us for any boxlock is out of the question! Couple that with a rifle built by an unknown maker and you will never recover what you spent for the rifle! I think the prices for English gun work are over the top and the makers like Westley and the lot are cleaning up! Bear in mind that the English have not made any barrels for at least 70 years. The have always purchased the barrels from Europe and Spain. The limeys have always had a knack for breaking it off in people and have gotten more greedy in the last 10 years.
I had the Holland gone over by a fellow from England with a superb reputation. 1,000.00 later the gun shot a little better but not enough to make it a keeper. He cured the doubling problem for 450.00.
All in all you could not run fast enough to give me another Holland and I don't run that fast!
My boxlocks were superior in every way the the H&H and cost a hell of a lot less.
Please keep in touch and I will do the same!
