Default Sweet Li値 Lifter

My sixteen gauge 23243 has 24-inch Plain Twist barrels cut back from their original 28 inches. Very little choke making it perfect for the kind of hunting I do with an occasional foray to the Skeet field.

I’m so happy to have it back!

I put together a nice little display of Lifters together for the California State SxS Championship in late April early May at our annual event in beautiful Coarsegold, CA. It was fun.

Dean, I remember you got GG to do the woodcock on the trigger guard, but I had never noticed the unusual complete lack of engraving except for the sunflower (or whatever it is) on the firing pin retaining screws. Did you get a letter explaining that? As always, a neat little gun.

To quote Thomas Haynes Bayly-“absence makes the heart grow fonder”

And what we learn here is Never sell anything! Ha

Love the woodcock and starburst engraving. Unique

The fact that it is a Grade-0 I never ordered a letter but I believe I will now.
There will probably be zero to very little info but what the heck - it’s only forty bucks.

I think the engravers sometimes sneak in a little gift like the engraving on Dean's lifter. On my AAH Pigeon gun, stated in the order "no engraving", the sides of the safety button are expertly engraved with fine scroll. I owned the gun for weeks before I noticed this little "gift" from the engraver to the customer.
