Hey Rich, can you please get yourself camera savvy so we can enjoy your guns almost as much as you do?!?

Bill...My guns plate was missing the toe from the lower screw down, snaped off across the screw...Brad salvaged a peice from a similar correct butt plate and seamed them together... it seems strong, looks very good and does not jump out at you. I know its there but I would rather have it this way than a repro plate that does not look right or fit as good. This early 1901 Gh has the inleted sper at the heal, that said Im very happy with the repair. I have a VH gun with a half moon shape chunk out of the middle right side about 2.5" long and almost half the width....gunna call Brad see if he can do the same type repair on this one..or if anyone has a vintage no-2 frame plate availible that would fit? Thanks all SXS ohio....(-:

I have recently added a set of 32 inch damascuss barrels with forarm to this gun. The barrels are shown in the thread The Beauty of Damascuss.
Interestingly enough the serial number of the 32 inch bbls are in the records as leaving Parker fitted to a GH 0 frame 16 with two sets of barrels, one 28 the other 32. So now I have a backwards GH 16 with two sets of barrels This gun has now sucked up it's last dollar from me. |

Rich, that's a beauty. I really love that little O frame GH 16 picked up at Hausmann's this spring. I carried it more than any other gun in the UP this year, I believe I carried it the day we hunted. Shame someone had cut 1inch off the barrels .They were supposedly damaged). Hope you dont mind your picture on the internet--its already in all the post offices!
