I was in Dan Cullity's shop once and he had a Colt double on the bench and it was very impressive. Dan is a master gunsmith and I respect his opinion very much and he remarked that he thought Colt was one of the best American made doubles. He was familiar with the internal workings and I will take his word for the quality of design and craftsmanship. As for the look and feel, in my opinion, it was extremely well made; an impressive shotgun.
Since that day, I have been watching for Colt doubles; with an eye to obtain a similar gun as the one Dan had on his workbench. I have yet to see another, let alone one as nice?
