Different Baikal shotguns??

[Mortblanc]

I see you fellows referencing the "cheap Baikal shotguns" and I often wonder if you are getting a better deal on them that we do over here.

Their single shots run about par for all singles over here ($125), and they make a pump that sits in the low priced bracket ($250-$300), but once one passes to the O/U doubles they enter the mid priced category hovering between $400-$700 U.S.

While that is not equal to the thousands of dollars a top line double would cost (and I am not going to pay) it is still a healthy price.

The used gun market is almost zero over here, unless one is swapping between friends. Everyone is hanging onto everything they have and buying more, so we never see them on the used gun shelves at anything resembling a bargain.
