Do the math and save $20.
Yes, in my envelope I included a form for membership + check and form for research letter + check. It only makes sense!

IHS= In Hoc Signum (By this Sign?) latin interpretation might be off somewhat, but what the heck.

Was your grandfather a religious man?

My DH was made in 1902 number 113506. the engraving had to be done by the same man. Same pattern on the barrels. The stock could have come the same tree. Mind is not a trap gun., but is fun to shoot. Hope to bust some doves with it in Sept. Enjoy your DH it was made to shoot. Dan

My vote would be Batchelder's. I had my grandfather's 16 vh restocked by DelGregos some years back and had to send the gun back several times, bedding material oozed out of the frame, base plate screws had to be replaced and timed properly etc, etc. Lawrence was fine to deal with and the final product was satisfactory but I didn't expect to have to return the gun for corrective work. I've had Brad work on a number of guns and he and Lori are great to work with. I know others have had good experiences with DelGregos, only reflecting my experience. No piling on please.
