Thanks, I've looked at a lot of Merkels... Trying to figure out what's what.
They seem to have a very good rep, I am in no hurry, just trying to learn what I can, so if I run across a gun that seems to have potential.... I don't do something stupid. Which, I have been known to do from time to time... One other option I am seriously interested... Are the CSMC RBL guns in 20ga.... I sort of have that in my back pocket in case I just never run across something that really makes me smile, and the itch to get that 20ga gets itchier...

How is yours setup?
I keep the RBL as my option that I feel I can always go to. But for now, want to keep looking at guns, It may be a while before I pull the trigger on one, just because I keep flip flopping on what I want.

Never been a German maker fan. I have an itch for a Spanish 28 and English 12. I held a Thomas Wilde 12g recently that was almost religious in it's balance and feel. $9,000 was more than I was willing or could spend.

I like Merkel sxs 20 gauge. Very well made. Also like Greeners. Not over the top priced and lots of quality.

I'm in love with these. My station in life is rather humble though...
https://www.john-dickson.com/available-guns Take a look at the ones that are "in the workshop" or being "remanufactured". They use an older existing action of theirs and rebuild to suit Maybe I should start playing lotto. |

Another German SxS I have owned is JP Sauer, not over priced but a good honest quality gun.
