Good timing. Granted, the linked auction isn't a 2-barrel set but, it's of a similar configuration. (save wood quality of course)

Best kind of auction to gage the market, too.

True, not rare, but in 71 gunsinternational listings, not one 20 gauge 2 barrel DHE set is listed.

Umph. Maybe pictures don't do that gun justice. That big honkin beavertail forearm with those short barrels almost make that gun look like a coach gun on tops of a Well Fargo run by its profile. I like 26 barrels for a tight cover hunting gun (insert endless debate discussion here on barrel lengths), but that configuration on that gun looks like something you would hide in a duster doing your ok corral reenactment.

BTW for me that is the first no no for my taste when it comes a gun to have all that longwise grain in the stock by the action. It looks like striped shorts with a plaid shirt, it just looks too busy. Structurally not a fan since it could split more easily along that grain but I am sure there are some arguments about that as well.
