Default Alex Kerr....

There always seems to be a lot of interest in anything about Alex Kerr "Parker Dealer to the Stars". I spotted this on eBay and robbed the pictures off the sale. Never seen anything like this before from, pretty cool.

Neat, I used my Kerr's Sporting Goods leather shell pouch this weekend. For me, it's a pigeon pouch because it is hard pressed to hold 25 shells, even if you use both sides. A pigeon pouch only has to hold 10 or 12 shells. I have a couple of Alex Kerr's skeet trophies in my collection also.

Destry is this a current listing on eBay as I didn't see it? Might make a good candidate for one of the new patches.

I bought an old 20 gauge and it was delivered in this case.

A real bargain for somebody who's a 44 chest.

I've been sorta working on another shooting sweater but I don't want to have to go through getting them from the UK again. There's nobody here in the USA I can find that can make something like we had before, the closest is Dehen Mills and they'll be like $450. I'm looking in Canada for a manufacturer, no luck yet but I'm looking.

Dave has that recoil pad on his Browning because he was hanging around Kerr's in 1950 when it was on the rack.

Didn’t he have a role in All About Eve?
