Hello NelloR:

Welcome to the forum. You will find the membership here very helpful and knowledgable and without the bad attitudes so prevalent on other forums.

There's a gentleman named Ron Vella that hails from somewhere around Oshawa I think that has done conversions of the type you seek. I have not personally handled his final product, but have seen pics/postings and it looks like he's very skilled at his craft. He would be worth a try.

I've also seen some rifle/shotgun conversions on display / for sale at one of the tables at the Ancaster gun show. You may find some leads there.

One more thought for you to ponder: Biilding a quality double rifle involves a very high degree of skill, time, and craftmanship and these virtues are diametrically opposed to the notion of inexpensive. A Baikal SxS rifle is one low cost way to enter the game @ around $1k..... There are recent threads here on the forum that discuss the virtues of these. I would suspect that it will be otherwise difficult to find much that wouldn't cost several thousand dollars. I don't know your point of reference as to what too expensive is, so it is hard to offer better guidance on this one.

Best,

Postman
