This video explores the perceived 'snobbery' in the UK shotgun market, where even entry-level shooters often opt for expensive new guns, while older, high-quality used firearms are undervalued. It highlights how a functional Spanish 12-gauge sidelock double barrel can be purchased for under £100, and a world-class 1974 FN A1 trap gun for under £1,000, contrasting this with the high cost of new premium shotguns. The discussion touches on the reasons for this market disparity, including licensing, perceived value, and the appeal of newness.
This video reviews a wide array of shotguns and rifles available at a Holts auction in September 2021. The presenter highlights the exceptional value found in older, unfashionable Japanese over-and-unders like the Neko, praises the enduring quality of Beretta 682 X-Traps, and explores various other firearms including Miroku shotguns, converted double rifles, and vintage .410 bore options. The review emphasizes practical considerations, historical significance, and the potential for acquiring high-quality firearms at bargain prices.
