I am interested in guns from the Birmingham makers and will shop hard for them!
I have limited experience with Birmingham guns (I own exactly one), but I did take my Lacey hammergun to a well known and highly respected gunsmith for a bit of attention. His comment, after he finished the work, was along the lines of "That's really a well made gun. Where do you find things like that?" The moral of this story is, don't limit your shopping to the big name makers if shooters are what you seek. I bought this one right, because there is no name recognition. I love it.
