So my memory is only half bad. The 8 bore I saw was a double rifle (high end estimate $40K), and there's also a bar-in-wood hammer 8 estimated at around $6K. I did not look them over at all, but they are there, along with quite a few other 8s. It really seems that the 8s are coming out of the woodwork. You guys are fueling a renaissance in the gauge.
