Who is H.D. Freeman
I recently acquired a DHE project gun with 34" barrels. The letter states the gun was ordered by H.D.Freeman of Atlanta, GA on 06/24/13. The letter goes on to state the following."Special requests were:No safety,Trigger Pull 5 lbs.,No pitch, Silvers rubber butt,and RH 265 pellets and LH 285 pellets."Consigned for 1 year,then to be his if he shoots it to the exclusion of all others."
The consignment language in the letter made me think that Mr. Freeman must have had some association/connection with the Parker community in order to consign a gun, maybe not. In any case I have put a little effort into trying to find some information on him. Apparently he was a trap shooter of some prominence back in the day but I cannot find much really. Anyone know anything of this Gent or have you seen a consignment wsituation such as this before? Thanks !!
