I agree that experience matters. I only asked because you used the word "We" outside of quotations. This is not to say that a seller can't give good advice. It just nice to be able to separate helpful personal advice, like yours, from a sales pitch.
Another thought for the OP. Whatever gun you choose, attend a few vintage type shoots where lots of double gun guys will be gathered. At a typical skeet/trap club not many side by sides are seen. In this way, you'll encounter guys who are glad to let you handle, and sometimes shoot, a variety of guns. You'll make some new friends in the process as well. Best wishes.
