Sounds fair to me - even funeral-grade Heyms don't come cheap Smiler

I had a Heym 470 box lock double a few years ago that was fitted with a selector switch to disengage the ejectors so the rifle was a extractor system for the firing range and back to ejector system for hunting. That is one double rifle I sorely regret selling. Damn fine rifle in just about every way!

A full blown Heym safari (right handed) in 450/400 with standard measurements sold this weekend for $11k on gun broker. That rifle also had claw mount bases and a custom peep sight.

Considering that, these strike me as being overpriced and have been available for awhile due to their reserve.
