Ken,
Demand for these guns is pretty low, but the supply is very low. They sell in the $450-$850 depending on buyer and seller. Finding an ejector model is a bit of luck. Look for Miroku, Charles Daly, Western Field and Kawaguchiya brand names. Note: Charles Daly switched their SxS manufacturing to Pride of Spain around 1974.

Anton, it took me a while to "see" the evidence of ejectors

Ken, you'd have a heck of a time finding one. The vast majority of the Miroku sxs I've seen have been extractor guns. Pretty basic but well-made and reliable. I've seen a couple Miroku sidelocks as well--essentially the same gun as the Browning BSS Sidelock. But one of those was definitely an extractor gun and the other may have been too, don't recall for sure. Most of the boxlocks I've seen have also had the PG/BT combination. The 12ga Model M I had was exactly like Anton's, straight and splinter (but no ejectors)--looked just like a basic Birmingham game gun. But I have never seen a 20ga in that configuration.
