I haven't seen it since it was auctioned and went to the DU museum near Memphis. But, I was extremely fortunate to have been able to spend an hour with it before it left Savannah, where it had lived for about 50 years, before being "discovered" by gunsmith Jim Kelley.

I was able to disassemble it and measure the bores, chokes, stock dimensions, etc. I took many pics of it myself, but the most prized pic I have of it was taken by a friend in his office of me mounting the gun and looking down the barrels. When I did so I had a keen awareness that I was looking down the very same barrels that Mr. Nash had looked down so many times. My heart was beating out of my chest!

Me and Bo Whoop ........
