The AYA N? 2 is the pre-eminent ?affordable? sidelock double gun, and the most famous model in the AYA line. Since its introduction in the late 1950s, tens of thousands of N? 2?s have been sold

in the United Kingdom, the United States, and everywhere that shooters value the superb balance and handling of a fine double gun.

Mechanically, the Nº 2 is identical to the Nº 1. Like the Nº 1, it was originally modeled on the time-tested Holland & Holland system.

It is stocked with standard walnut and engraved in a simpler pattern.

Traditional sidelock guns are made with either a standard action or a rounded action. In the former, there is a raised ridge surrounding the lock plate, as well as a drop-point carved into the wood behind the lock to give it a finished look. The underside of the frame is squared, with a carved bead to soften the square edges of the metal. The Purdey is an example of such a traditional action.

In a rounded action, these features are eliminated. The underside of the frame is flush with the wood. There are no drop points, and no squared edges in either wood or metal. Thomas Boss of London is famous for its rounded-action game guns.
