ian nixon
glad i sparked memories of your distant trip(in time and distance).
that sounds like a marvelous greener you have,and i hope it gets some use(for what quarry do you use the 32 inch,geese?)
my friends fh35 is a standard 28 game gun with side safe,a and d action, and no cross bolt. i have used it on occasion and shoot it well (i feel most standard british guns seem to find the target!) but i am not keen on the side safety.
if your wife is happy with the remington i would let it be until she discovers the hidden pleasures and mystic of a british double for herself.
cheers
