Dean's comment "One set of barrels, doesn't matter which" does not ring true. A one barrel set, 26", sells for thousands less than a one barrel 28" gun. It does make a difference. Oddly, I had to buy a two barrel set years ago, during the closeout, because a one barrel 28" gun in any double trigger configuration was not available. I paid $2850 instead of a lower price, $1995, for the "out of stock" one barrel set. I tried to locate a one barrel 28" double trigger gun from all three closeout dealers, but could not locate one. They were awash with 26" guns.

I’ve had my hands on plenty of the Repros from the time they first hit the market . And from inception until now I’ve never been able to talk myself into purchasing one . To each his own I just cannot get past the MADE IN JAPAN part . To be honest that’s also why I’m not to much into Brownings that weren’t made in Belgium .
