The 1947 issue Zephyrs from Belgium are different from the later Spanish Zephyrs. The Honker and the Vandalia were hardly overpriced, even for the mid to late fifties when they were listed in Stoegers. I think the non ejector sidelock Honker was $125.00. I have seen a couple of Honkers listed for sale in the last few years, never a Vandalia. As I remember, the Vandalia was about $198.00. One of the gun sites, probably this one, had threads discussing the Honker and the Thunderbird, a double ten also from Sarasqueta. The Thunderbird was an ejector sidelock for $228.00. I would kill for a Honker, but have little hope of finding one. I think the Honker had a 36 inch barrel.
