Just bought another cheap thrill this week...a Jean-Claude Hignay' (J.C. Higgins) 16 ga. double. In mint condition it cost less than $260. Not checkered, walnut stock with a PoW grip, it's a Stevens 5100 made sometime before 1941. Color case is 100%, the Sears Robuck version is actually a bit nicer than the original Stevens, which I thought was unusual. Has a checkered steel buttplate, polished barrels, blue is better than commercial grade even for modern guns.

I'm gonna shoot it today. 2 3/4" chambers. Wa-HOOOooo!
