    Do a search for european American Arms on the web. Can't speak to the O/U rifle/shotgun, but I do have one of their O/U 20 guage shotguns. Not the best quality, but very utilitarian as a boat gun. Great little shotgun for puddle jumping ducks and hunting grouse and Ptarmigan.

    I have an EAA .410 sxs. It does great except is stiff to break open, almost have to take it over my knee.

    There are no bad guns, only bad people.

    I have their 20 over under. I like it a lot. Probably weighs a bit more than a premium quality gun but all the bells and whistles at a low price. Externally fit and finish is good. Break it open and see rough machining. Bores look good. Inside works are full of stamped metal parts. It works great so any complaint is about cheap manufacture methods. On the other hand the Russians are known for making guns that do what they are supposed to do, without any frills, the AK for example. For comparison, I have a 12 Sarcilmaz over under made in Turkey. It cost about the same as the Baikal but is a very basic gun with double triggers, extractors instead of ejectors, etc, etc. Overall the gunsmithing on it is better than the Baikal. I guess you get what you pay for. Hope this helps. Robert
