After spending quite a bit of time researching and looking at guns I went with the Heym 88 PH 470. Many thanks to all who've answered my questions, expecially Dan and Aleko (who found a lefty 470 for me to shoot) and to Chris for answering my questions for nine months straight (as well as shipping a gun out for me to see)! Now I have to cool my heels for way too long  before I take delivery!-UtahLefty | ||

Outstanding! Heym makes one heck of a rifle. When are you going to order a 9.3 X 74?  SCI Life Member DSC Life Member | |||

Jim, what I'm worried about is not being able to "settle" for less than a heym for the second one. the whole lefty angle limits my realm of possibilities....-UtahLefty | |||

Good choice. You'll be happy with both rifle and dealer. ------------------------------------------------- "Serious rifles have two barrels, everything else just burns gunpowder." | |||

“After spending quite a bit of time researching and looking at guns I went with the Heym 88 PH 470.†I think that is a exhalant choice and by the way congratulations. I am sure you will be extremely happy with your new Heym. I think you will find that a DR is fitted much like a s/s shotgun. I have seen shotguns converted to lefty and don’t see that it would be that hard to do on a DR. The worst case would be having a new stock made if you need a cheek piece.

I wanted this one set up right from the get go but I hear what you are saying and may go that route on something like a 9.3 in the future. -UtahLefty | |||
