Good evening gentlemen,
I have recently become quite fond of double of all kinds. I am using a Merkel SxS 500 Nitro and enjoying it. Last fall, I became addicted to upland hunting, especially quail. I have purchased a young German Shorthair Pointer from a local hunter and plan to hunt with him this fall. I feel that a good SxS 28 gauge would make an excellent quail gun as well as a trainer for the 500. I have a Browning over under 12 that I like, but I think a side by side would make an excellent addition, as well as a trainer for the Merkel. For that reason I really would like double triggers, and if possible, extractors. I am a college student and have a somewhat limited budget. With these things in mind, what do you all think I should consider? Thanks, Matt.
