What did you all pick up at the Southern?
 

Any interesting Non-Parker guns come home with you from the Southern?

I was fortunate to acquire these two.

An austrian 20g hammer gun with 30” krupp barrels. If you look close, every one of the small squares on the frame has a silver inlaid cross in it. I am just a sucker for highly ornate European guns!

And a beautiful Lindner Daly hammer gun in 12g with Bernard (marked laminated) barrels. 30”. It is so far proving to be a great shooting gun for me.

Try again.

Interesting transition of steel and horn on that trigger guard.

I had a reallly nice drop barrel action in 14 gauge once with a similar setup. It was really nice when you removed it because it was held by one screw at the back. The front of the horn had a blind half round dovetail into the metal section. I suspect looking at it that this is fashioned in somewhat the same way.

Brian’s Linder Daly is a fantastic condition hammer gun.

32 inch Smith hammer gun from a fine member here. I've shot it about 200 times the locks look like new on the inside. It's at Gunters getting fitted to more like me. A gun that I wound not have known of if I wasn't a member of this great organization.

Brian did the 20 hammer come from Allgood ?

No.

This is nowhere as nice as Brian's Daly but I have a soft spot for knives. 1970's model liner lock, single blade Case.

So nobody else picked up any non-parker guns at the Southern?

OK I will come clean. I bought Fox XE 22487. 12ga 30" very high condition. It had a a small crack in the head of the stock and Brian is repairing that for me. Pictures to follow when I get it back. Bookend to my 22416 (top gun).

This Holloway & co hammergun followed me home. 32" barrels caught my eye and actually fits me really well. I literally bought it, picked up a case of gamebore 2.5" shells and went and shot the hammergun event with it. Station 1 was the first rounds I put through it!

I brought home an Ithaca 28 Ga. NID with single trigger and ejectors. Factory BT!

Pictures?

Fox XE 22487 12ga 30" it's the right gun in the first picture and bottom gun in the second picture.
