Do look for older Ugartechea self-opener with Bohler Bros. oxidation-resistat steel barrels. In USA you might come across one in couple of lifetimes. Now the good news>>>> it will cost fraction of that AyA.

Adam Stunson, that price was whacky, my friend has a pair and as he freely admits the ejectors get very tired after a big drive. He sticks to his number 1´s, best, Mike

Mike I think that's why they stopped building them. The H&H was easier and less costly! Here some pics of the inside.

I love mine. The big draw for a spanish gun is that you can get them custom made. I prefer some rather long dimensions.

And you are soooo right.
Those off-the-shelf English guns just never seem to work out do they?

The ancestors in North of England and elsewhere would SPIN in their graves. To Anglophile Spanish 'Best' is defined as rainy day substitute for: Purdey, H&H, Boss,.....

Although William Powell, Churchill and others are selling Spanish guns under their badges after some additional finishing. Clearly those makers are satisfied with the overall quality of those guns. How do deceased Anglophilic ancestors respond to a Spanish sxs bearing a Churchill banner? 
Such a long, long time to be gone, and a short time to be there.
