Does anyone have recommendations for double-gun related venues in Madrid? Museums with vintage firearms?
Thanks much,
C.

C, The Royal Palace Armory is pretty amazing. I used to spend hours in there when I was a kid. While other kids wanted to go to the amuesment parks and El Corte' Ingles, I wanted to be at the Armory :-) Not sure how many double guns are in there, but it would be a shame to pass on visiting the Armory if you are in Madrid.

As Dustin said, La Real Armería, in the palace is definitely worth a visit. Armería Diana Viaji, is a very nice and $$$ gun shop. www.dianaviaji.es

Here are three gun shops in Madrid:
Armeria Argali
Diana Viaji
Armeria Española
If you have more than a passing interest in Spanish shotguns, you might consider joining the Spanish Shotgun Forum on Yahoo (see my sig. below). We have some members who have shopped there.

i BOUGHT AN aRRIZABALAGA AT DIANA ARMS IN 1982 , THEY HAD SOME OTHER FINE GUNS BOTH SPANISH AND BRITISH AND WERE VERY HELPFUL IN GETTING THE GUNS THROUGH CUSTOMS. PRICES WERE FAIR.
