Through the kindness of the member who bought my little Grade-0, 0-frame 16-gauge Lifter with 24” (cut) barrels, with a true ball grip, not a round knob grip, I bought back this special woodcock and grouse gun a few months ago. Keavin Nelson re-checked the grip and forend and gave it back to me at Hausmann’s last week, very nicely done. Next step is is to send the Twist barrels to be redone.
I’m a happy guy!
