I have 2 AYA’s and 5 Uggies…I haven’t shot any of them enough to have problems…but am aware of the issues…my retired gunsmith mentioned it more than once. He also raved about Uggies, for the $, and what you get. He was trained on fine English guns, spent 20 years working on them, before opening his own shop near Solon Springs, Wisconsin. I enjoy my Spanish guns, but I’m no expert or aficionado…I think Michael McIntosh shot an AYA #2 12 gauge…primary gun, perhaps? Think he had good things to say. But the investment aspect of Spanish guns doesn’t seem to be there…from what I’ve seen.
