I've been offered a very nice Dickson. It's in the UK and could have it added to my next shipment. Should I buy it?

I’ve never seen a bad round action. I have seen a few which were very well worn. They have a following and most are quickly snapped up. Barrels good, I assume.

Yes, you most definitely should!
Thats a dream gun right there. At least it is in my dreams.

It really depends on the cost and barrel thickness. Not a bad looking gun, but looks like it’s been lightly buffed.

Ken Just curious. What are you basing your statement off of "looks like it's been lightly buffed" ? The makers name in the banner? At that angle it does appear lightly engraved. What would the minimum wall thickness you/anyone would feel good about? I have asked and waiting numbers.

The action looks very bright in the pictures is why I think it may be lightly brushed. It also could be the lighting. This is an action has the cocking indicators and most would have had Damascus barrels with 29” barrels. Can you tell if these are the original barrels? As far as wall thickness, 21 or 22 thou wouldn’t bother me depending on the location. If the barrels are nice, $5k is a great price.
