Rich, how about putting together a tech or research article on the "Hollywood Gun" with hi-def pictures?

It's 82 degrees IN THE HOUSE The wife thinks it's wonderfull, no need for the AC. I'm heading for the basement. Somewhere I have a copy of the PGCA letter for that gun. It doesn't say much just the description as a GHE with all the options sent from Parker in Illion to Montgomery Ward in Chicago. I'm not much into the tech side of things.

I have always thought that "raiding the forum" was a good filler, but that was not utilized to any extent.

George the "Hollywood Gun" is a GHE 16ga skeet gun on a #1 frame. Its a late production gun 1941 I think. The gun is a two bbl set both being 28 inches, one choked skt/skt the other M/F. Both bbls have their own BTF and vent ribs. A straight stock and SST rounds out the options. The gun went to Alex Kerrs in Hollwood and the engraveing was redone in a much finer and more elaborate style than a std GHE and the birds were done in gold and the background stippled to bring them out. With it's connection to Kerrs a dealer in Hollywood, Ca it gets it's name "The Hollywood" gun. It's a go to gun for me on the clays course.

No apologies needed. These guns are an endless learning experience.
