I gave this "Bling Spanish Flash" a home. Crucelegui Hermanos is not a household name in spanish guns of Eibar, I bought the gun not the mane. The gun is about 95%+, wood to metal is perfect, checkering show no wear. Features are DT, hinged front trigger, ejectors, Purdy type hidden third fastner. Locks are hand polished(engine turned) and feature double sears. Barrels are 28 1/2", choked .010 & .020. perfect bores and blue. Proofed 1973.
I did a search on Curcelegui Hermanor, they are still a company in Eibar making machine tools. Didn't survive the DIARMS experment in the 1980's.
See what you think about this Spanish Flash.

Jerry, excellent find!!
Those not so well known Spanish makers can be real treasures not only in the looks department but in the performance department also. I had an ‘AMR’ Spanish double that was light, well balanced, threw tremendous patterns and was one tough son of a ‘B’.

i have never considered buying a spanish SXS, but now i might.

I have an uncle that got me in to doubles, and swears never to buy anything but american or english guns. not sure why.
"No Spaghetti guns!" he says

this comming from a guy who has a Ferarri, and a Chris Craft....
i guess spaghetti cars and boats are ok, but not the guns.
go figure.

nice find!

Chris Craft? AFAIK still built here in Sarasota, FL and proud of it. Same guys own Indian Motorcycles.


My problem lies in reconciling my gross habits with my net income.

Yeah, that is one place, but they also opened a plant in Fiumicino, Italy in 1962 named Chris-Craft of Italy
This guy is pretty particular, Italian mahogany, built in Italy. I know his is a mid 60's boat, so I assume it makes sense.

But boats are boring, especially with such a gorgeous gun to talk about! Without a gun, a boat is just a nice place watch ducks from, IMO.
