I have no connection to this, just thought it was too cool not to share!

That's a really fine one. I am not sure what the market is on those.

Neat, havnt seen one of those in a LOOOOng time...

Yahoo buckaroos, looks like a cowboy or gangster wannabie.

Where ever it is you need one of those, I do not want to be there.

VERY collectable. One sold on Subguns recently for 4K and a mint one sold at an auction house for 10K+.. Like anything collectable.... condition, condition, condition. There is also a WTB on Sturmgewehr right now. The 5.9K I think is high for the condition on the GB gun. They were made in Flues and NID's. The NID's are not as graceful looking due to a stock design change.

I had the hots for one years ago but the only ones that came up at the time were NID's and I wanted a Flues. Then the prices rose rapidly and I wound up with a 20ga stakeout instead which is a pistol grip short barrel 37. The Stakeouts are also registered as AOW's because they left Ithaca without a stock.

Just for interest, at the top appears to be a Smith A & B; courtesy of Richard Breyer and fultonhistory.com
It was never offered in a catalog, and I don't believe even Bro. Tom has seen one

I have thought about creating a Modern copy on a Yildiz 20 gauge side by side via a Form 1.

Just for the Hell of it.

I used to see those little .410 sxs double pistols at all the gun shows. I think they got by being able to use pistol ammo as well. Never see them anymore. Are they still legal without getting a federal permit?...Geo

I think those were called Snake Charmer or something like that. They made the legal requirements.

I've seen two total in person. That one is much nicer than either of them. I did not know that there was a factory holster made for them. That alone is cool to me as well. Still not something I need or even lust for. And just the thought of my finger getting over the end of the barrel give me the willies.
