I have a new double that fills the bill in price, though it's not been fully tested yet, on the plate or in the field. It is another in my search for the best new S x S ejector gun with 30" barrels, and double triggers. My interest lies in .410s that meet these criteria. This gun was ordered from Italy, built for me to my stock specs, delivered within three months of ordering, and for well under $3K. It is a F.A.I.R. Iside Tartaruga Gold. My intentions are to do an in-depth comparison of it with my almost identically optioned Dickinson, with side by side pictures, and put it all in a write-up.
A few close-ups of it......

Triggers are great, ejectors strong, nice barrel striking and bluing. Pretty gun. I can't recommend it yet as a candidate for the "best S x S under $3K", but if it is properly regulated and holds up a few seasons with no problems, like the Dickinson has, it may be in the running.
