Do you suppose that it was that very model that inspired someone in Meriden to experiment with the SSBP and the wooden reinforcing dowel?.....Never mind!

George,
To that I would say, if you've got to ask, you probably can't afford it.:rotf:

Oh I do like a sweet smooth handeling small bore:whistle:

Guys just keep in mind.......for every racy small gauge model that's out there, there's a man that's tired of shooting it :)

I was wonering how long it would be before the distaff side weighed in! I've heard Dee's sentiment expressed before, but it was much cruder

Well said Dee ;)

Oh believe me, I too have heard the much cruder version myself..lol. You can't grow up in a family being the only girl and not see/hear the crude things boys say or do. My brothers made sure I wasn't sheltered by any account. :p Being a "tomboy" has it's advantages and disadvantages, but it's great non the less. My brothers now say "don't let Dee fool you, she keeps us boys running and on our toes!" :biglaugh:

more butts

The Admiral Fletcher AHE has anchor chain around the edge. Nice treatment also.

AA or A1S ??

Do we know who the engraver was?

Judging by the taped screws I wouldn't think that is an "orphaned" buttplate...?

Wow,

That is amazing.:shock:
