New home?? Did they move that old house since I checked on them after the storm this weekend?

That grand old house will all be home to us, or are you referring to the Ohio addres where Roger, the new keeper of the bloodline lives?

I'll put up some picture of my boys on the off topic board, but in the meantime if you want some setter overload take a look here - I put a collection together from contibutions of many OH owners for the annual gathering a couple years back.

Yep, I was refering to Roger Brown in Monroe county, Ohio. I was born,raised, and still work in Belmont county which is adjacent to Monroe. I still own 170 acres in Belmont with a restored 175 yr old log cabin on it, but now live on the other side of the river. I met George Bird a couple of times and my cousin was his dentist. Those sure are beautiful dogs.

That house is one cool piece of history.

We live in a nearly two hundred year old stone house, and I pass by a log house along the local trout stream several days a week.

Being a history nut, i enjoy seeing these things saved.

I also have a Trojan 20 with original 26" barrels (confirmed by PGCA Letter).

I have a 26-inch barrel, 0-frame, VH-Grade, 20-gauge, shipped in 1930. It still has the short chambers for the 2 1/2 inch shells, and is choked plenty tight. I'm at our place in Kodiak, AK, away from my records, so can't give what the letter and my micrometer says about the chokes right now.

i do not have a letter on my johney cash gun its a g grade with v grade barrels but they have not been cut and are 26 inches barrels made in 1904 by serial no...i agree the 26 inch and less barrel were the rage in there dayin the south for quail... i like short barrels for there ease of handling.... charlie

Number 171102 is a 26" Titanic 16 gage choked RH Cyl. LH Mod. per it's PGCA letter. Number 176884 is a 26" Titanic 12 gage choked RH. Cyl. LH Full per it's letter. I have other examples of guns ordered with one barrel open and the other tight. Having hunted for years with a flusher this combination with two triggers offers the choice not to destroy a close flush or to pull the back trigger on a bird that gets up at extreme ranges.

And we must not forget that sweet little Titanic 28 ga. straight grip 26" DH that was choked right open and left close... yes, I still dream about that one...
