Guy I shoot with bought one. His also had an issue with the triggers. I've also seen that with some CZ hammerless doubles. However, CZ has a pretty good reputation for responding to customer complaints.

Of course steel shot is an issue if you're looking for a duck gun. But if not, there are quite a few Husqvarna hammerguns on the market, at very reasonable prices. I don't hunt ducks; just picked one up from Mark Beasland (www.mbabllc.com), who usually has several. Steel barrels, 29.5", weight under 7#, nice modern dimensions. F/F, would've been a very good duck gun when lead was legal, or even now for those willing to pay the extra $ for something like RST's Nice shot or tungsten matrix. I'll use mine for a very occasional round of trap, and maybe shoot a pheasant or two with it. The Bernardelli hammerguns are also good buys when you can find them. And I recently saw a Prandelli-Gasparini hammergun on Jaqua's website, priced under $800 if I recall correctly. Looked pretty nice.
