Mike, I bought the paper. Are you after something in it? It will generate a lot of duplicates for me

I don’t know? I need to know what you have and compare it to what I have. Let me know and we can compare and contrast as they used to say in school.

BTW, that was a good lot of paper you won. ����

I’ll be in touch once I get it all cataloged. No pun intended…

I won 4 items of the 7 I bid on. I had about 20 on watch just for entertainment. This is the first time I won any with my initial bid and I actually won t of the 4 that way. I also had zero problem with missing the bidding with a winning opening bid. I am glad to see they seem to have responded to comments and really improved the system.

I generally buy "off brand" items through this auction. With all the high quality and price items (Parker and otherwise), competeing in that segment has never been in the cards for me. When bidding online, I am generally more of a bargain hunter for my more eclectic areas of interest. I got a few unique items in those areas (SBT's and single shot guns) but I also splurged on a sentimental pick. One of the two guns I bought my father for Father's day the spring after I left college and got a job was an Ithaca Ultraweight 20 ga M37 with a 25" barrel. We were both fans of the M37 smallbores. In high school he had purchased a used16 ga and I had hunted with it for years. He saw the 20g in a store and fell in love with it but couldn't afford it. It weighed right at 5 pounds and carried like a dream. He was a fanatical grouse hunter but never owned a dog. This was pretty common in Eastern KY. He pounded the ruffs with that gun for years. On his death, I had my mother give the M37 to my 7 year old nephew (his older grandson). I always said I would buy another one when I found the right gun. The one in the auction struck me as the one. I paid a ridiculous amount (probably 33% over its true value), but some things you just have to do. My grouse hunting days are over (it's a physically serious sport in KY) but I will enjoy owning it and when I am done it will go to my Dad's only other grandchild so they will both have one to keep.

I didn't win anything.
I really wanted the Repro 20/20/16, but thought $9000 plus the juice and tax was too much.
Great auction Josh!!

I'm not an L.C. Smith guy but I found Lot #107 that Glahn engraved gun interesting. Would have been a lot more interesting if it had its original barrels.

Now all my Clays guns from 20 through 8 are 32” or longer.
I handled that gun a bit on Wednesday and it felt good in my hands !

If money were meant to be held onto,
they would have made it with handles.


I’m a Skeet shOOter but if I ever have to draw a bead on one of them little “Traps”,
this is the gun I’m gonna do it with!
