Nope - same design, just contoured a bit differently at the thumb pad.
Could simply be the difference between two different guys polishing and finishing prior to engraving. .

Two nice guns no doubt about it but they aren't really a pair IMHO and I think the asking price is a little strong for them.
he does still have the matched pair of AHE Pigeon guns for a $100K. I bet that could be negotiated and those are a nice and true pair of guns. Now where did I deposit that extra $100K

Steve's shop is on the street I live on, therefore I am in the shop weekly. He is a good friend and I have learned a lot about guns from him. The pair of AHE Pigeon guns are as good as they get and were made without a doll's head. I read or heard that some pigeon shooters ordered there guns that way. How a doll's head could foul up one shooting I do not know, but I am not a pigeon shooter.

You've gotta start somewhere... especially so if the consignor isn't in a rush to sell.
I hope he eventually gets his asking price - or somewhere near it. .

Send a check Dean and your wish will come true as well as Steves I think $45K is more realistic but then again I don't want or need them

We have just inherited one that looks like the bottom one in these pictures. Is that the CHE or the DHE? Thanks.
