| Is that the upgraded 28 gauge, that is way over priced?

| I have seen other D-grades from that era in which the engraving was very nice. Very deep scroll work with birds and dogs that are very un-cartoonish looking.

Dave gets the prize...that is if you think $36,000 is "overpriced"...I know of a real one that changed hands last week, 30" DHE 28g (00 frame, I think) traded for a 3 bbl set CSMC M21 20g...hmmmm, some would question the wisdom of that transaction...

| A beautiful probably 20 gauge Damascus gun sleeved very invisibly, remarked rib. Possibly upgraded. It is the nicest example of a fake I have ever seen and I want it. Dave, where did you see this gun for sale? I hope my friend Don owns it so I can look at it.

| I missed the previous posts. I think I also get a prize that I would be willing to share with Dave. Where can I see the evidence of the sale of this gun? I would like to know who did this work. Oh my gosh, did it come out of Southern PA?

| I had the impression, by the tone of the posts, that the gun had been sold. Nice gun. I still want to know who did the work.
