I looked around at the very limited supply of new and old
doubles available in Australia.To say that some of the
"classic" english doubles were being offered at surprisingly high prices by some very "shrewd" dealers is a gross understatement.I liked the look of the the Heym Mod 55B o/u in 470 but the German's were not the least interested in supplying one to the local dealer at a competative price.
In the end I took the gamble and placed an order with Butch Searcy.I can't believe metallurgy has not made any
steps foreward in the last 100 yrs.As far as all that repair nonsense goes-I hope the next person to have trouble with my rifle will be my grandson who is due to be born in about 20 yrs.
If I want legend and mystique I can can find it in abundance at the local library at a very reasonable price-from a rifle I want reliability.
