Just got back from the new Gander Mountain built in Wausau, WI, and perused their gun section. They had a wide variety of good stuff, including some over/under guns. The one that caught my eye was a .410/30-06. They were asking $12,000 for it!! Nice gun, but that's a bit unreasonable in my opinion. Either way, I liked it. Might have to go back to look at the handguns they have, as per my other thread in here for my search on the tools.

Drills are always expensive. The expense comes from the craftsmanship necessary to mate two entirely different types of barrels to the same action and still have them print well. The type of fitting needed to produce the level of accuracy expected is very, very expensive.
