Default Griffin & Howe information

So....I received word today my research letter is done. Unfortunately the only available info was from the IBM card, but the good news is information exist from Griffin & Howe. I contacted Bob Beach at G&F. He has responded, and what I know so far is the gun does show up in the records of Abercrombie & Fitch, was received into inventory October of 1936 and was sold in their New York store later that same year. The model is described as a grade GHE Skeet, and the buyer was a lady.
I will most likely be perusing additional information and letter from G&H.
My question is has anyone else gotten letters and additional info from G&H? And if so are they glad they did?
I'm pretty excited there is more info for this gun, and that the gun was purchased by a lady (most likely for her husband) but maybe I'm over thinking this and it's not that big of a deal.

Thoughts?
