An AyA #2 sidelock is a superior gun to an Ugartechea AOC boxlock from Aspen Outfitters. One is a "Grade 6" sidelock, the other is a "Grade 2/3" boxlock.
Actual value on a brand new AOC is around $2000. Actual value on a brand new AyA #2 sidelock is about $4800. MSRPs and used sale prices based on what era they were made introduce some variations of course.
Bottom line, AyA is twice the gun of the Ugartechea in this unequal comparison.
Now if you want to compare AyA #2 to a premium/best grade Ugartechea sidelock, the Uggie would be the superior gun...but you didn't ask for that non-relevant comparison.
Enjoy!
