I have 30 years, I have inherited a beautiful rifle. I'm not really a pro, but I am a big fan of this site.

I'm 70, bought first "good" double, a Parker VH 20 in 1963. First double of any kind a few years earlier, but can't recall exact date.

I'm going to be 41 this year. Bought my first SxS at age 30 and have spent the last decade trading/selling away all my single barrel guns and aquiring beautiful, historical, character riddled, artistic, story filled - double guns. I hope my boys will appreciate the history and craftsmanship of these fine guns as much as I do.

I'm 61 (well, actually on the 3rd of February) and I received my first double, a Stevens 311 on my 13th birthday. I used it as my only gun for just over 20 years and then graduated to autos and the occasional pump. I became re-acquainted with doubles about 17 years ago and have been a devoted fan since. I still shoot an occasional auto or pump, but a side by side is my favored gun for upland with also fairly frequent use of a Citori in 12 and 20. The gun that got my back into doubles in a big way is an Ugartechea that I purchased from Dale Dalrymple. I have been really hooked ever since, even graduating to a double rifle - that I still have yet to hunt with!!
