Well, no decline in SxS in my little world. Just got back from a few hours in SxS heaven with CJO.

Had my hands on a lovely little Lefever E grade in 16 gauge, a matched pair of 100% engraved Perazzi SxS, a Watson 28 bore, an incredible 1920's Purdey hammer pigeon gun with cheek piece, a higher grade M21 in 20 gauge,and a early C grade Fox in the process of being beautifully restored (wood is spectacular) as well as a number of others that have slipped my overloaded mind. He even handed me a fugly Merkel O/U from the late 1990's in 16 gauge that was a dream to shoulder.

If these SxS are no longer of interest to most, I say good.....more for us!
