This is an interesting notion. I LOVE my doubles. They are true works of art in their own right. I contemplate how they would look if they were made of stainless, vs rust prone blueing. My Heyms are somewhat susceptible to the first signs of rust formation on the barrels whereas the receivers are dull nitrided finish, (I think... or is it stainless, or nickel or whatever?). Point is, maybe I would hunt in rainy climates with my doubles if if wasnt worried about damaging them. They still could be fine works of art, complete with hand engraving, gold inlays, absolutely perfect fit and finish, and not so much worry about walking through the Canadian northern wilderness which in the fall hunting season is almost always more damp than not. It would be one hell of a setup for western browns, and would be great in eastern moose country. The one part I struggle with is " what about the lumber?"......... Should it be a fine piece of walnut, ripe for the bleaching effects of nasty weather, or should one move toward a soulless laminate, or god forbid, "tupperware"?.......... Ugh. this is a slippery slope!!
