I am trying to identify options for a subgauge sidelock OU for under $20k. Anything British is way over that price range. The early Beretta SOs are all 12 ga., and all recent Italian sidelock OUs, Beretta or otherwise, seem to be trading well above $20k. I have seen a couple Belgian or French options but they were also pricey and all seem to built on some unusual patents. Verney Carron and Chapuis are making OUs in subgauges, but both are non-sidelocks. Spanish sidelock OUs are all Merkel clones.

The only options I have been able to identify are either a CSMC A-10 or Merkel. Am I missing anything obvious?

Thanks in advance, Doverham

Such a long, long time to be gone, and a short time to be there.
