Odd length barrels are a collector's dream, but not an easy collector category to fill your gun safe with. These guns are hard to find and even harder to pay for if the seller realizes the rarity of the gun he is selling. I have been lucky in finding a few oddities, but some weren't the prettiest guns, but, oddly, some were wonderful. Most have been displayed and shot at PGCA meetings and Side by Side events, so most of mine have been seen by our members. The one gun I would most like to finish and shoot is my "One of One Made" 30" eight gauge DH Grade which weighs less than ten pounds. This may turn out to be my favorite heavy bird gun.
