Ted, I was thinking of higher grade examples and the basic Darne design in the larger context of French culture over the last couple hundred years. Yours is a tip of the hat to modern tastes, which is probably why, in part, the gun is still around. I've heard nothing but good things about them from a functionality standpoint. I hear they handle very well, mental adjustments to breech function notwithstanding. I expect to be going through that myself soon with my recent purchase of a husky-influenced belgian side lever hammergun.
