Just looking at a couple guns this morning and this one caught my eye, Brad does a fantastic job at restoration as evidenced by this piece. There are a lot of good guys out there Brian, Chris, Turnbull,and others. Just thinking that we are lucky to have such craftsmen available to us! Now if we could just get that turn around time down a little? Here are a few photos for your afternoon viewing pleasure, Gary

You can double and triple click for real close ups, the gun is a 28" Laminated 20gauge, lifter in grade 3, gary

Gary you are right.... and also that is one beautiful gun !

Dean Romig 08-18-2016 09:55 PM

Gary, there should be a P stamped in the forward section of the right barrel flat. Do you find one there?

Incidentally, there appear to be lightening cuts in the water table - is that a twenty-bore?

Dean, Yes it is a 20 bore, will check on the P, to set the record straight both Turnbull and Bachelder worked on this gun, gary
