Frank, you want a lot of advice on the gun. I can't understand why you wouldn't want information on the owner. I guess the initials of the owner are some kind of secret. Oh, well.

Bill,
I did ask for advice based on factual information and I thank everyone for all of the opinions. I don't believe that the name is important at the time. The case being original to the gun is only based on speculation. You can say that I'm keeping it secret for the moment. Send me a PM if you really think you knowing the initials can help.

Maybe I missed it, but did Frank provide an overall weight for his unique 16ga V/R Parker trap?...

Best, CSL
