Default Killed any cats lately perhaps?

That's the rumor about curiosity, so I have heard. Yes- I have 90 days to keep the 12 gauge Trojan, or I can return it for the purchase price of $500 as credit against the $3000 price of the Del-Grego-ed DHE 12-- I have thought about your patented forearm removal tool for the Trojan, and with a tool & die background, I am impressed, and your price is more than fair, Mr. Romig. The only reason why I have held up this purchase is that I may decide to move up to the DHE--

I agree with Mr. Murphy, a unaltered Trojan in any gauge is best left unaltered- The main sticking point with me is not the money so much, but the Trojan was made in 1926 and without the early small dolly's-head rib feature-- but with coil springs- And from reading the Peter Johnson book, I get the feeling that the 1906 dated DHE may have the older flat springs, and could be prone to failure.

I buy shotguns to keep and to shoot, and shoot a great deal- I hope you can appreciate that, and I will welcome your further advice on this. Thank you!!
