Again, nice going. Beautiful rifle.

Armbar.




Thanks, Armbar. You don't see many of these guns around and I suspect it has to do with the quality of the work Beretta had put into them which pushed their retail prices up near the high end English guns. At that price point I think the appeal and nostalgia of the English guns gave them an advantage in resale valuations, even though most think the Beretta guns were very comparable to their British cousins in design and quality.
Another interesting aspect of Beretta's foray into the market for high quality doubles is that the base design of the guns was that of Famars , also known as Abbiatico and Salvinelli (A&S). You'll see that the Famars' Venus double rifle pictured below is highly similar to mine, except for the obvious differences in finish. It was in the finishing process that I believe the gun move from the hands of A&S and over to Beretta.
Anyway, I really like mine and was pleased to find one at a much better price than was commonly charged for a new one in NYC or Dallas.
