Keavin, I have days when I feel like I'm older than dirt, but I'm positive you're not. My ex-wife can probably get a hold of the original owner for you.

Seriously though, I actually did track down the original owner of one of my lettered guns. I was stunned when I connected with him, because I was certain I was going to be talking to a son, if not a grandson. If I recall, the man was in his mid nineties and he bought the gun at A&F in 1936 as a high school graduation gift from his father. I believe the letter was written by Ron Kirby.
