i have come to believe that it's worthwhile to stop and rummage through the black gun dealers stocks....i have bought two nice doubles (one a dougall lockfast) from such shops at favorable prices in the past couple years. doubtlessly brought in to trade by folks intent on getting some super-duper autoloader handgun - they bring "some old gun" to trade. they don't know, or care about it - and neither does the proprietor - so he allows them a pittance....and may very well pass an expectational low price on to the first "sucker" who shows interest in this old curiosity.

best regards,
