Double triggers bring a premium on Repros. I guess it isn't a matter of rarity but scarcity. People who have them hang on to them.

Brett,
What is the approximate cost of doing that DT conversion?
A nice extra in doing a conversion to DT is increase in LOP.

Bob

When I started looking for a Reproduction, I called Brian Dudley and got some ballpark figures. There are threads here that show Brian's work. I think it best if someone else is interested that they contact Brian. I will say I thought it very fair.

My dad who had his own real estate business used to say that a house is only worth what someone is willing to pay for it. The same applies to firearms in my view.

Are the quail 1/quail2 choked guns that rare or is this just overpriced? I was shocked to see what it was listed for compared to others.

That's a lot for a ST, 26" repro. The gun may be like new, but if you are going to use it find one has 28" barrels and open the chokes.

The Orvis gun is "listed" at $9200. The example I posted earlier in this thread actually "sold" for $8050, the highest price I have seen for a 26" 28 gauge gun with single trigger. The Orvis gun may disappear, but not because someone paid $9200 cash for it.

Q1/Q2 choking is hard to find and does afford a premium, but not anywhere near what this seller believes.
