IMO a very realistic price for a rare-configuration action. Wish I had the spare shekels. I don't particularly like the octagon top but it's desirable to some.

And to answer your set trigger question, yes a reliable and crisp result is very doable IF the smith is patient and good at benchwork. The key here is to remove all, and I DO mean ALL, of the lost motion & play in the trigger mechanism. This requires fabrication of 2 slighlty-oversize parts and their subsequent gradual reduction in size to achieve as snug a fit as possible.

I can only describe the Borchardt trigger mechanism as Rube Goldberg on steroids. Even the standard single trigger version has no less than 4 moving parts and 5 right-angle bends in its linkage. But a knowledgeable workman can easily achieve a very crisp 2-3 lb unset pull, I have done it myself on 2 original Borchardts.
