EH owned many guns and traded a bunch off. He gave some away. Some that were given to Patrick were stolen in the 70's. Or was it Jack? Not sure. How many of EH's guns do we have that have been authenticated? I read the tale of his Model 12 being given to A & F to be sold. A college kid bought it..cheap. He claimed upon interview, that it was worn slick. I am sure it was. I think, the famous G & H '03 Springfield would be the Holy Grail of EH guns. As the story goes it was stolen and ended up in the IRA which seems kind of bazaar to me.
EH casts a spell over American hunters, fisherman and his literary fans. I am a victim.
