Daryl:

I sort-of figured that somebody had solved the pinfire problem... and it is so-tempting to contemplate an upland hunt with such a weapon (unique on so-many fronts),

Moreover, I had already come to understand the level of quality of doubleguns being produced in England the 1870s, so to hear that earlier guns (early 1860s?) were also exceptional isn't entirely surprising.

For me now, it is a matter of juggling conflicting interests. Already counting (& thankfully) many blessings, adding yet one more obscure pursuit isn't necessary a good idea.
