I didn't know that Charlie was in on something like this! He's been a friend for many years. I'm actually the one who got him interested in s/s shotguns when I took my vhe20 along on a Montana hunt with him - all he had was his father's Mod 12 at that time. He's a "reformed" geologist and worked with and for me in Alaska and California in the 90's. He's a very bright and talented and self-taught gunsmith and is getting very good at engraving these days. I help him on Parker values sometimes when he gets one in the shop.
