Got my Double Rifle

Awile back I post a question on the thread on weather to buy and old double or a new one.
I got lots a replys on the pros and cons as to old verse new.
I would like to thank everyone for there input it help alot in my final choice that I recieved today.
I thought it would be only fair to tell you what I bought seeing how everyone had a hand in it.
And the winner is Verney-Carron Demas Azur Safari luxe boxlock in 600 NE.
Thanks again to everyone's input.

short and fat and hard to get at, hit like a hammer and never been hit back.

We're going to be "gifted" with a health care plan we are forced to purchase and fined if we don't, Which purportedly covers at least ten million more people, without adding a single new doctor, but provides for 16,000 new IRS agents, written by a committee whose chairman says he doesn't understand it, passed by a Congress that didn't read it but exempted themselves from it, and signed by a President, with funding administered by a treasury chief who didn't pay his taxes, for which we'll be taxed for four years before any benefits take effect, by a government which has already bankrupted Social Security and Medicare, all to be overseen by a surgeon general who is obese, and financed by a country that's broke!!!!!

Nice rifle. I've handled the 600 VC and was impressed. Well, you've certainly got the "Top End" of the of the big game spectrum covered. Make sure there's a couple of strong-looking trackers in your party, and bring a few $5 bills. You'll find a 600NE as light as a feather, provided someone else is toting it for you!
