I was completely satisfied with the only Spanish gun I ever actually bought and shot. It was an Uggie entry grade (model 75EX) sidelock with a single trigger.

So, I'm no expert on Spanish guns, but my thought is that the biggest drawback for them is the steep drop in value from new purchase price to 2nd hand sales price. Conversely, that would be their greatest advantage for those of us wanting a very good gun at a manageable price point.

Of course, in the used gun market the buyer must wait until the right gun comes along at the right price. If I find an AYA model 2 with the right dimensions, configuration, and price, that may well be my next purchase...Geo
