Jack OcOnnor has a bit to say about Arizaga guns in "The Shotgun Book". He said he had a 20 gauge that he liked very much but its single trigger doubled "all the time". He also said that at some later time they were making only cheaper guns for the American market and were not so good.(at that time). If you are able to tell a well made gun by looking at it(no offense intended but some of us can and many others haven't a clue) and if it fits you well, $2800 is not very much money for a 2 barrel sidelock set these days. You could pay that much for a Benelli Super-Something-or-other, automatic. I'd feel better about it if it has two triggers. If not, ask to be allowed to shoot a couple rounds of skeet with it, to see if the single trigger works OK. I would also be slightly skeptical about the action and locks being original blue, but I could easily be wrong about that. Seems like most sidelocks are CC'd.
