Heads up, Auction Saturday....

If the owners of the .410 and 28ga want to donate these guns to me, I promise I'll ask Penn Dot if I can put them to their original intended use

Chuck, I have never found a machine that will throw a groundhog a sporting distance.

Does that mean they can only be used for varmint shooting in PA? I was hoping to shoot bridge pigeons in CT.

Bill, I think this might just work for groundhogs.

Not exactly regulation height and distance for ATA targets but then again, the ATA doesn't register squirrels or groundhog averages

Chuck, I have enough black squirrels now. I wouldn't want my place to become their favorite amusement park.

FYI, I stopped in Cabala's in Hamburg Pa. on Tuesday and they had what looks like the PHD VH .410 that ahfoxman talked about. It's not currently on their web site. It was in their display case and I didn't get to handle the gun. It looks visually perfect with just a little fading on the case colors but it looked great. I didn't write down the exact price since it was way over my price range but it was somewhere between 30K and 40K.

Murphy, here's your chance

Chuck, It may not be the exact same gun. My understanding is that the PHD order was for multiple 28 and .410 gauge guns.

Dave, without the serial number of Tom's gun, we don't know however Tom lives in Pa and if "CB" is who I think it is, he lives in Pa too. BTW I'm not that "CB".

This serial number range is way past when the Order Books stopped. All we have are the Stock Books and there were 10 guns made in a row that were .410's starting at 235856 to 235865. Some of these could have been ordered by the PHD but we'll never know unless they show up.
