Speaking for myself and I'm sure a few others, RBL's lack the connection to the past that you feel when spending a day afield with a SxS. I'm sure they're good guns but they have no history. Maybe in a hundred years or so, when hunters are using laser guided, proximity detonating shot columns, a group of shot gunning traditionalists will form the RBL Collectors Association.

Being personally connected with Antony Galazan may change your opinion of his guns. Think attending a double gun event with Charles Parker.
