Default long barreled guns at Jaqua's

Just FYI, I had about a 15 minute window today so I stopped at Jaqua's. After 10 minutes of I chit chat I looked around quickly and noted some 3 (+-) 30" 20 gauge guns V grades, and 3 (+-) 32" 16 gauge guns. Most appear to have some level of refinishing and a couple looked pretty original in the brief time I was there. I didn't have time to handle any of them or get details.

Don't worry, with the prices He has on them, they will be their a long time.
Take your time getting back their, they are not going any where!

If memory serves there’s a DHE 16 1 frame 32” single trigger gun there that has Shelly Gitman’s initials on the oval in the toe of the stock that I thought looked rather sporty .

Harry, don't apologize. Your post was of interest to PGCA members, some of whom, like myself, have been friends and customers of the dealer in question for 50 or 60 years. Bill Jaqua and his survivors are not thin skinned.

Rest assured Bill, I Have No intentions to Apologize, and By the way, I also have been a customer of the Dealer in Question, but not for 50 years.

Sheesh, so you guys were buying guns from "The Dealer in Question" since you were 10 years old?! (Sorry, just offered in fun.)

Bill was great, but I always had great luck dealing with his daughter Cam or with Neil
