Heck, Bruce, cut out the beans and you might be able to get a Boss or H&H somewhere down the road (and without the beans, the girls might like you better, too!) What a wonderful gun you have there!

Which reminds me, does anyone know what the H&H Badminton pair at LBS brought on Gunbroker this weekend? I was watching them but missed the end. They weere a composed pair put together by H&H and documented by them. They looked like two nice cased guns and were at 10,250 about 4 hours before the end of auction.

Ernie’s is a month away. Any interest in getting together and shooting a five stand with these?

Hi John,

I am going for the first time this year and would love an excuse to bring and shoot my Purdey...

She is well used, but looks and feels better in person than this picture I just took...

Default SBT ALERT!!

Hey guys, bring your SBT's to Hausmann's in June and compete in the W.C. Letterman SBT competition. All makes of SBT's are welcome to enter but only AH Fox guns are eligible for the trophy.



SPECIFICS FOR THE WILLIAM C LETTERMAN CUP:
• ANY VINTAGE (pre-1960) break open single-barrel trap (SBT) shotgun may be used. Anything newer than 1960 must be approved in advance by a Fox Collector rep. NO pump action or semi-auto shotguns no matter when the gun was made.
• Shoot for score as many times as you want to
• Practice shooting available at reduced cost
• 100% Purse payout for (3) highest scores/any gun = 50% 1st place & 30% 2nd place & 20% 3rd place
-$6 from each $20 entry will be dedicated to the purse payout. AHFCA will be adding $100 to the purse.
• NO shoot offs for tied high scores. Scores based on long run from the front end.

PLEASE NOTE: SHOOTING WILL BEGIN AT NOON ON THURSDAY, 9:00 ON FRIDAY & SATURDAY. QUALIFICATIONS WILL END AT 1:00 PM ON SATURDAY. THE SHOOT OFF WILL COMMENCE AT 2:00, SATURDAY AFTERNOON AT THE BW/WCL EVENT STAND. WE WILL START PROMPTLY AT 2:00, PLEASE BE ON TIME!! THANK YOU.

Can a Parker SBT unseat the current champion who won last year with his Fox SBT? Let's just see. Is there a GA state champion in the house?

Jay and John, they are beauties. Any excuse works for me as well. Let’s arrange to meet. We drive up on Wednesday, and will be staying at the Holiday Inn Express in Vestal. I never shot that SBT, but why not.
