Thanks all for the responses, very helpful and quite appreciated.

I have always loved doubles, and especially like thin stocks and double triggers. It was a perfect time of a little excess money and what looked like exactly what I wanted on sale. She wasn't the cheapest (and with California import costs was more than I had expected) but ended up being around $1100 after taxes, shipping and fees. I think she is very pretty and points beautifully. Initially I was debating briley tubes but now I think I'll just shoot it with light RSTs or Spred-R loads. I certainly don't need to add weight to the barrels.

Is there a recommendation of a smith for a basic checkup? I've heard merrington, being spoken of highly. The screws have the obvious rough handling marks and I'm not sure what can be done about that.
