There are some nice new doubles out there. I shot a 28 gauge Beretta 486 Parallelo yesterday at some clays. Sweet gun.
I agree about wanting vintage ...... up to a point. When what I want is not available at all in an old gun, or at an extremely high price, I'm willing to forego age for function, as long as the quality is there. Like .410 ejector guns with 30" barrels. You'll look long and hard before finding a classic like that. I know, I tried for a long time before giving in and ordering the Dickinson.
