Hello Mr. Price, Ha, I think I got around $4500 for it and it was the most I received for any of them. It was only ten years or so before, that I had a PHE 410 on the arm that I sold at the old Balto show back in the mid sixties for around $550. Wow, how tiny bores appreciated in short order. If we only would have had crystal balls. But I have no complaints, as Life has been really Good to me.

Hello Mr. Goddard, Yes, I did own and shot quite a few birds with TR's F Grade Fox, that he took to Africa and South America, for some 26 years, but I sold it early in the new Millenium to fund retirement adventures, and it now resides in the Museum in Cody, Wyoming. Wow,talk about a run on sentence, one too many after the hunt single malts.

George, I'll take a look later today also. They had the gun on their table in Hartford along with a high condition P grade. I wonder if it got pulled?

Tom, I tried to buy the VH .410 with PHD marking. As I recall, there was some failed negotiation in the $2500 range. I really liked the gun but in those days, a $100 or $200 difference in asking and selling price was a big deal. I may be wrong, but I think the owner at that time has initials "CB". Now that I think back, the price being argued was probably $1200 versus $1500 rather than $2500.

If the owners of the .410 and 28ga want to donate these guns to me, I promise I'll ask Penn Dot if I can put them to their original intended use

Chuck, I have never found a machine that will throw a groundhog a sporting distance.

Does that mean they can only be used for varmint shooting in PA? I was hoping to shoot bridge pigeons in CT.
