I have a grade 3 hammergun but another one wouldn't hurt. I wouldn't win a free lunch is a soup kitchen if I brought my own bowl and spoon but I'll buy tickets for a hammergun.

Ed Morgan is the Chairman of the Raffle Gun Committee.

Now that's a waterfowl gun for sure!! Almost 9 lbs. and the original owner was in Portland Maine. There was great waterfowl hunting in that area in that time period. It is a wonderful gun - I have handled it and only wish I could win it :crying:

Dean you won a raffel gun once befor. Isn't it a once in a lifetime event?:rotf:

Dean and others, the purchaser of the gun, Mr. Davis, was a dealer, not an individual. I am still crazy about the gun. Is it a #3 frame gun? At this weight, it is not hard to imagine. If it is a pre check hook gun with no frame size marking, maybe we could measure the firing pin spacing to find the frame size. I am all atwitter, but, then, I'm usually all atwitter. I have a 1912 Flying Ducks catalog with the Davis stamp. Maybe I can trade the catalog in on some extra raffle tickets. I don't know where I got the idea it was a ten. What a gun. Bruce, please post pictures of the actual raffle gun as soon as possible.

The timing is such that we think we will have the actual gun on display in Milwaukee and if we do, I'll post photos. The key is that it is a D hammer, with the nice bolster sculpting, and highly desirable to many if not most collectors.
