Richard; As I understood TT's question which started this post he was not asking about current working men's guns but those vintge ones of the past. At least all the ones he named were of that catagory. He asked about NS's, 311's etc, he did not ask about Huglu's etc. At least that was my interpretation of the question. He did not even ask about which was currently the best buy, just which was considered the best of this class of (vintage) dbls.
