I have a nice GHE Damascus 16 on a #1 frame with 26 inch barrels and a DH 16 Damascus with 26 inch barrels on the 0 frame. If they are side by side I'll take the 0 frame every time.

My grade one 32 inch 16 hammer gun is a pure joy to shoot. I think you will enjoy your 32 incher.

Things are starting to move along on this one. The wood is to the point of turning it over for welding and engraving. Gonna add a bead to the breach balls and get the engraving under way.

Amazing how tastes change.Prior to sporting clays becoming popular,a 26" gun would bring a 25% premium over longer barrels.

That premium has been going down every year since Jack O'Connor died!!
