I have an I. Ugartechea Falcon which Ted Schefelbein educated me about. As I recall, they were a Model 30 upgrade version imported in the 1970's. Lion Country has one in their used listings for $1050.00, and it looks like the fit and finish is somewhat better than the new Grade II you are interested in. Did you see the major flaw(s) in the forearm checkering in their pictures of the Grade II? Here's a link to the used Falcon. Scroll about 1/4 way down the page through the used guns.
http://www.doubleshotguns.com/used-shotguns-side-by-side.htmlThe description says that this gun was originally bought in the early 1980's. I believe they were actually imported in the early 1970's and the white line buttplate and pistol grip spacers kind of confirm that. The Falcons have 3" chambers. I haven't used mine a great deal, but it has always worked flawlessly, and it makes a nice alternative to my vintage doubles when I have a bunch of modern ammunition to burn up. I bought mine 5-6 yrs. ago at a gun show from a guy who was walking it around. For $225.00, it was too hard to pass up.
