In my opinion rare, usual and quality collector side by sides are cyclic however the differential price points over the last ten years has shown substantial gains. I personally don't believe the next ten years will be as aggressive but I'm wrong on many of my ideas and time will tell.
However I enjoy traveling and shooting at different clubs over multiple states and my long term concern is I'm observing a tremendous reduction in the number of shooters and how free rounds they're shooting. I've shot multiple days in San Antonio, Dallas, Phoenix and Tucson in the last three months and never once waited for a station at Sporting Clays, Trap, Skeet, Bunker or Wobble trap. All these clubs mentioned how they are throwing fewer birds, we probably didn't start with side by sides but got their because of our appreciation for shotgunning. Part of this issue is components and shell pricing but we need to be generating the next generation of US!!!!!
