God! Yet another brain-fart. Ugartechea. I'm sorry, getting older isn't for sissies. All the Spanish makers can make a wide range of guns, ranging from utilitarian to "best". I've seen some pretty nice "Uggies" and some pretty poor AYAs over the years. Not an excuse for confusing them, but I do tend to lump them together just a bit.

Yea, the idea of a multi-thousand dollar Model 12 does seem a bit farfetched. Even though this gun might be pretty rare, I frankly like my nickel steel 16 better. I'm just not a collector and the handling and weight of this 28 doesn't even come close to my short-chambered workhorse. I weighed the 28 today at 6 3/4 lbs. My 16 is almost 6 even. Not sure why the 28 is so heavy.
