Craig, you'll be happy to know that T.H. Keller had more than one waterfowl gun. He had a DH grade 8 gauge 30" gun that I still have and shoot. David Noble will be pleased to know that I still have my A.P.Curtis Parker try gun and I have no hesitation about shooting it and do shoot it and fit shooters with it. The gun I am most disappointed to have sold was my VH 20 gauge 32" #2 frame #153,333. Does anyone know where it is? This is a pretty interesting thread.

I haven't sold too many. I wish I had talked Julia out of selling her 20 gauge Citori that was her first gun. It would have been a good gun for Harry to use for the Forest City Juniors this year. I wish I still had my first 870 Wingmaster, but Dad gave that one away without asking

That would be a great Parker to have in the collection!

:banghead:A "CE" grade Lefever with 30 in. Damascus barrels that I bought just over 30 years ago. Original in every respect and with 90% case colors and barrel finish.

I sold Danny Patton a 12 gauge VH #2 frame 32” full and more full . Gun was straight grip and stocked quite high . I bought it on GB from a dealer in New England . When it arrived I took the trigger guard screw out popped the guard up and checked the number in the wood . I was sure it wouldn’t match , but it did . Don’t think I ever got a letter but I’m pretty confident it was ordered as an economical pigeon gun if memory serves the gun was made in the 1912-1914 area . And yes he still has it but won’t part with it .

One of my dream guns

Sold a 30 inch 16ga Fox Sterlingworth 40 years ago, still miss that gun.

A PH 12ga with twist barrels that I traded. I could shoot that gun reasonably well. Should have kept it.

Back in 2007 acquired a Merle’s 280-360 SEL 28 ga 410 bore with straight grip and gorgeous wood in an aluminum Merle’s travel case. It was U.N.fired and came to me for a gentleman’s bet payment. Daughter was getting married so it went soon after it came. Wish I’d kept it but such is life
