Sounds like it boils down to if your wanting a project or not. If it's the challenge of the project your looking for. I'd say the Merkel is the way to go.

Galazans at present is just taking deposits of the repro. barrels and it's not a sure thing that they will ever be made. Because of this no one has seen a set of the .410 barrels and who knows how they will fit.

Personally I'd scratch the repro. off the list.
