English & Euro Made SxS's.
I will be first to admit, as little as I know about Old American SxS's, and I actually do know a bit about them.... Not enough to be an expert, but enough to generally not make a huge mistake on one.
I don't know much if anything about English, or other European made SxS guns. Sure, I am familiar with some of the names, Purdy, Holland & Holland, Francotte, Webley & Scott, etc.... Just to name a couple that come to mind quickly.
So, let's say a man wanted to buy a nice 20ga SxS. One that is quality made, but not overly ridiculous in price. I love looking at the Purdy's and H&H guns, but they are not in my price world.....
I've looked at a few Webley & Scott, although it seems some of those are made in England, some in Turkey and not sure about other places.
So, what are good Euro brands/models to look at the are in the sub-5K world? Does such a thing exist? I am not even sure
Some day down the road, I want to pick up a nice 20ga, and while I might spend 5k on it, I sure as heck don't want to make a 5K mistake on something I don't know much about......
Just curious what are some guns to look for......
