AYA Shotguns

[pslinger]

Hi all,

I recently inherited two AYA shotguns. I'm in the process of trying to identify them.
What I do know is one is a .410 gauge and the other is a 28 gauge.

They are both beautiful shotguns. Very light weight. Both are side by side, double triggers.

There are numbers on both guns, but I don't know if these numbers are serial numbers or model numbers.

What I'm trying to find out is what models they are.

Appreciate any help I can get. Can't seem to find anything much on web.

Thanks in advance,
PSlinger

Got a camera?

Meanwhile, maybe looking at a few on the Cabela's site will help...

Here's a U.S. dealer site with pics of the current models...

I'd love to see pics.

Thanks a bunch John. The Cabela's site was very informative.

I think both the 410 and 28 gauge shotguns are No. 2's. They don't have the coin finish.

I will post pictures once I figure out how to use digital camera and posting.

I will probably put the guns up for sale in the near future, once I get them appraised.

I live in the Milton, WV area.

Glad it helped.

Nice guns aren't they?

The AYA distributer's page lists John F. Rowe, an English gentleman who I had the pleasure to speak with at length at the SHOT show the other day about AYA's sxs'. He's very knowlegable about AYA shotguns and lives in OK. The numbers and e-mail listed is the same as his business card that he gave me.
