Never heard of it. Different for sure. Not sure I like the art nouveau motif. Too much of a traditionalist, I guess.

Yea, it appears to be total redesign. kind of looks like a DMB box lock with a pin-less sidelock. Its different for sure, just wondering which British bespoken gun builder built it first, or is it truly a new design from Spain?

Dont any of you see it as a typical Spanish sidelock with curved lock plates?
Rounded actions have become popular.
Only a couple could say they were truly a rounded/curved sidelock action.

This seems a well made alternate.


Out there doing it best I can.

Yep I see it now! Also need to correct myself, it is not a pinless sidelock. It helps to put my glasses on.

AYA is the #1 imported gun in the UK and Europe. Just like other makers, like Browning they could make different guns for the European market.
Good news is there is several AYA dealers here in the US and I am sure you could get your hands on one.

Absolutely. I was referring to the engraving/decor on the receiver.

It does say Other Engravings available & it can be had in 16 gauge. They didn't show the one that would suit ME the best.
