Side by side shotguns always take me back to a more simple time, and represent the most poetic and romantic side of shooting and hunting in general. And I love tight choked guns. When it comes to using lead free ammunition in a full choke, I would use bismuth or BioAmmo Blue cartridges, which in comparison to bismuth are a bit cheaper and they (most likely) to the same job. I don't feel comfortable using steel in an old gun. Maybe it's ignorance on my part. Actually, I have a suggestion for David... have a shoot with and old French side by side shotgun... either Manufrance or Darne. I can almost guarantee you'll fall in love with them after the first pulling of the trigger
I absolutely love Side by Sides. I have ten of them but only two Over/Unders. I've never seen a nice AYA here in America, but I would love to own one. I've shot them and owned SxS's since I was ten years of age. They have never done me wrong!
The problem with AYA No4s are the the majority are choked 1/2 and full you’ll need the chokes opening up for standard performance steel it’s hard to find a nice condition one now for under £500 unless you go to somewhere like holts i’ve a soft spot for them and on the look out for a No4 best quality boxlock which fetch a premium
Excellent David , could see you hit and miss the clays! I have a Laurona 3 inch magnum which I love to shoot with, it’s slightly tight choked though, but I need to get better😄
AYA No 4 is. a boxlock. The sidelock you are using looks like the AYA Countryman.
Yep 🧐
@@grahampawson1502 What would the price be on that one?
Full and full for steel. Good to see that you understand the steel shot regulations. Most people don't.

Hola AYA es una escopeta española

Wish we could get deals like that here in the USA.
import one for $120
@@dave_724 Where do I find out how to do this? I appreciate your input.
So happy the clay footage has improved 👌
David, I think you say these things to provoke comments..."officially you need full and full for shooting steel but you can still shoot lead??????"
And he’ll be selling that along with his “expert?” advice on Monday. Dear oh dear! 🫣
Cracking video
😬🤭
Nice gun love side by sides and i like AyA only that gun would sell for at least $2000 or more here in the United States. Cheers Ron
I have a Fabarm Classis 20 in a sxs and love it, its multi choke and steel shot proof, so future proof
I didn't know that the Aguirre Y Aranzábal (AYA) was so apreciated in the UK... They are really nice sxs guns, well made by the Spanish manufature.

Of course a best quality "bollock" is bound to fetch a premium.

David great video i have an AYA COUNTRYMAN is that same as a no4
Great Stuff 💯 Thank you David 💥💥💥💥💥💥💥
It is clearly a sidelock. You can clearly see the pins of the sidelock. Moreover, as far as I know, AYA did not make any side-plated boxlock.
That's an AYA Model 25. I have this gun. 25inch Partridge gun.
I love side by sides. But a sidelock aya is just two expensive in Denmark.😊
Great buy for the experience you would get, I will love one if you have a spare 😊
I love how AYA looks the price for this gun is an absolute bargain but unfortunately I cannot buy these in my country 😢
Nothing tighter than 1/4 I believe if not HP steel proofed?
We can barely get AYA here in the US. See 1 once in a while
Fascinante arma amigos bellezas elegancia
Can’t find it online in USA
It is 6/19/2024 what does that gun sell for now?
Where i can find a hand got for this gun.
Can’t say I’ve ever seen an AYA side plated gun before so better look harder if they are so easy to buy sub £500
It is a side lock, not a side plate and to say it is the equivalent of a No.4 well, just beggars belief!
David, I’ll buy that gun from you without seeing it provided it isn’t too right handed? How much cast has it got?
If you give The Oxford Gun Company gun room a call and ask them 01844 238 308 just say the one that was on TSC TV.
Nice gun are you selling it?
BAIKAL
So now I’m confused….what actually is it? Side plate or sidelock? Model number?
What could I expect to pay for that very same gun that you were shooting?
🇪🇨🇪🇨👍
A single trigger on a sxs is an abomination
