The age old question was ask of me today, what's a good upland sxs double for no money ($500). I told him essentially...nothing these days for less than $1k, and more-like $1500. Was I wrong?

Yildiz is the only thing I could recommend to him, after having closely dealt with three of them in actual hunting use for about 7-8 years. Mine has been used yearly with not a single problem, other than initially having a hard trigger. Perfect regulation. Adult sized dimensions. Great handling dynamics.

$489

How decent would a Ward's Western Arms 16 double be? Passable?

I really like the CZ Bobwhite 20 ga. I've killed more birds with one than anything else I've owned, from geese in Alberta to Sand Grouse in Namibia. I've had a couple, and have never had a reliability problem. They run around $600 with steel safe choke tubes.

Lloyd,
A bit of a one off, close, but, not exactly per your request:

https://www.gunsinternational.com/guns-f...un_id=101283792

Used little. Price is close. Gauge, too. I know a guy who has used a 12 gauge for most of 50 years, not beautiful, but, serviceable.

Bottom feeders best not be too picky.

Best,
Ted

$20 to Dave if it sells.
