I'll see you up there Rich, my son may come for a few days this year--his first upland trip.
As far as new aquisistions, only the project PH 0 frame 16 with the outstanding wood and Selous plates. Had it with me at the Vintagers, but didnt shoot it, was hoping to have the barrels looked at/measured by John Hosford, but he wasnt there. OK, here is a teaser pic.

Some great wood for a PH grade. Should be a lot of fun to carry in the grouse woods

Great news! I hope this means "The Boys" will get lots of time with you this upcoming season. My best to you.

This spring I bought a very nice William Defibaugh Bedford County percussion rifle , made in about 1885.
Recently, a nice little Ithaca ,grade 3, 20g from Josh last week. I wasn't really looking for one, but it was to pretty to pass up. I can't wait to see it in hand.

Nothing bought or sold this year thus far but I am thinking about selling a Trojan 20 ga w/26 inch barrels that I had Brad Bachelder do a total restoration some years back.

I think it was supposed to be "only 5 32" 20 with ejectors".....but I have been wrong many times.
