[QUOTE="Blue Heeler, post: 3561938, member: 46613"] Sounds like the Ithaca you found for $975 would fit your need. Nothing wrong with having a handsome shotgun in the field. Many years ago (mid 80's) when I was living in Cali, I went to William Larkin Moore's shop to look for a double rifle and was looking at some Garbi side by sides. If I recall, they were only around $1,250. Now ... $6,000-$15,000. Moral to the story ... I should have bought a couple. I used to own a few Beretta O/U 686's. Now just have one (28" M/F). Not the SxS you are looking for but a great gun and they are not stupid priced. I recently bought a Stoeger Coach Gun Supreme and had Jim Finch at Longhunter.com work his magic on it. Amazing how he took a really stiff, lower tier shotgun and made it into a very nice gun for a couple hundred dollars. While not as nice as the Beretta, it's not that far off. Thought is he does work on some Turkish guns and of course Stoegers. Should you find a deal on one of Stoeger's hunting model SxS guns, you will appreciate what he does to gun. Jim is one heck of a nice guy and does great work. [/QUOTE]
