I have had several Spanish guns primarily because of the price point. I am down to one AyA but four Arrietas. They are my favorite of the Spanish makers and their assisted opening models in particular. My Arrietas have been my primary hunting guns for almost 10 years and I have not had any issues with them. I prefer their engraving and wish the company hadnt folded. I do not understand current pricing on new Spanish guns and hope they come down over time.
