I love that CHE Garry!
I too have a bunch of 0-frame 16’s both hammer guns as well as hammerless. I’ve sent a few of them down the road and still kick myself for it. I still have three hammer guns and I think, four hammerless guns. One of the hammerless guns, a GH has been admired by some as having the finest GH engraving they had seen. I discovered why four years ago (after owning it since 2004) when I finally ordered a PGCA Research Letter on it and learned it had been made to be a display gun for the 1893 World’s Fair Columbian Exposition… My Goodness
