My sad story is missing out on Billy Mitchell's CHE 28" #1 frame 12 gauge vent rib gun with factory checkered wood butt, straight grip. The asking price was $1000 which I agreed to pay. Given a couple of hours to raise the cash, the seller refused to deliver. I haven't seen the gun since. This was probably 40 years ago. A good part of the general's collection was sold locally in Northern Virginia.
