Default Awesome New Project!

Seriously, a buddy I breakfast with several mornings a week, that know I collect old shotguns, called and said “I have a jewel for you!,!”

SO, who do you guys suggest for a full resto on this wonderful Hopkins and Allen falling block 10 bore!!

Totally tongue in cheek. BUT my buddy was proud as a peacock about the gun they found in their grand dads barn....i showed him a couple of “basket case” guns I have laying around, and he got the picture!!

Just trying a little humor after a stressful week!!,,
