Rich, yes that is Bill's little 20 AHE. Rich and Eric have seen that gun before at Rich's cabin in the UP. Spent most of yesterday afternoon with Bill at his father's funeral(101 yrs old).l

Just to follow-up on this gun. I took it to Bachelder's a few days ago, and we examined the stock under the trigger guard. I had thought I might get a skeleton butt made for it if the stock appeared to be a replacement, but the serial number stamping will keep this on hold. It seems clear the stock had been worked on, and not all that good a job was done on it. I'm looking forward to seeing what Parker and his craftsmen can do with the stock. Whatever the provenance of this gun, it will be shot and cared for by its current caretaker for the foreseeable future.
