I sold my long time friend, an AYA lightweight that I hauled around for many years. I am now left with Parkers, hammerless, top action, and lifter, L.C. Smith pre 1913 Ideal Grade, a Lindner hammer with single trigger, a 1900 Harrington and Richardson single, a Sarasqueta Honker single barrel, a mag ten NID Ithaca, a little Sauer bird gun at 6 1/4 pounds, and maybe one or two others. I would like to add a couple of more early Smiths and maybe a Lindner hammerless. My favorite may be the D Grade #4 frame hammer gun that my friend Harry Collins sold to my high school buddy and PGCA member, George Blair. I bought the gun after George passed away. I love the 11 pound #4 frames because they are indestructible and many have early competition shooter provenance.
