There is something of a mistique of toting a SxS through the game fields or grouse woods. I own a Baikal IZH43 12 ga 3" with 28" barrels, screw in chokes and single selective trigger. I love it. I also own Beretta and Browning O/Us too. I've also owned SxSs from Ithaca and Savage. The Baikal is no Browning or Beretta but it is a good quality gun for its price. I like its balance and the way it fits me and I wouldn't hesitate on buying another.
There's nothing like looking down the valley of those twin barrels on a fast rising cockbird of decoying mallard.
