And those skeet events are really dangerous. Were losing men left and right at these events!!! Safety has to be stepped up.
Geno, anyone can build a durable gun if your only concern is to stand there and shoot at a target and you dont have to lug it around with you through 110 degree heat and 90% humidity all day. Hunting is just one test of a guns all around construction but hunting dangerous game is the ultimate test of that construction. The English guns have been proving themselves against dangerous game longer than anyone and they have a really good track record. And that track record is, most of the people that have used them have survived to write books on their experiences, thats all anyone needs to know.

Granted Perazzi makes a world class gun that is a perfect blend of balance, handling and durability.
But if you note that a hunter will use a Remington or a Cooper or a Winchester or a whole host of firearms to hunt with, but when that hunter wounds an animal its the PH thats going into the thick stuff first and he has an English built double in his hands. That should be the ultimate indication of top quality.
