I am Dave came by and sorted out the Goughs so I didn't have to...some folks don't know one Gough from another but they can certainly give plenty of it...
I have the 28" full 16g M12 in its canvas breakdown case that my grandfather, Thomas P. Kaas (USA 3rd Div. 1917-1919) bought new in 1939. I plan to give the gun to my cousin's son, Lt. Kerr (USMA 2010) when he gets back from Afghanistan (see below, leading his squad near Kunduz) so he can have his great grandfather's gun...I also have a 30" solid rib 16ga and two 32" solid rib Heavy Ducks...they probably belonged to other people' grandfathers, too
