Terrific round knob twins! Looks like 26" in Kevin's hands and 28" in the other fellow's. Who is the other gent and where, pray tell, are those guns today?

OMG! - I feel another road trip coming on!! The records say there is another AH Damascus 16 ga. 0 frame 26" 5 3/4-pounder out there somewhere. Using the 28 ga. Damascus paradigm explored above, it's probably within 150 miles of here.
What a great trip that was - then to discover ANOTHER 28 ga. Damascus gun not 2 hours in the opposite direction!! What are the chances - 3 Dam 28s, all G grades, within 200 miles of one another - and within 6 SN digits of one another!!! Reasearcher, "Thanks for The Memories! PS - I know where all 3 are now, resting peacefully beyond the reach of the unworthy and the hoarders. We will see and enjoy them again, I can assure you. For now, its time to go wax the stock on my H&H Royal Grade. |

Grandma's gun came from the William Wagner store in D.C. I assume the other two did too. Most Wagner guns are found within a short distance of where they were originally bought. Anyone else out there have a Wagner gun?

Bill,
You told me my early 28 gauge VH came from Wagner's. I found it at a gun show in Louisville. The fellow I purchased it from was a dealer out of Georgia as I remember. Harry |

Bill .
As you know, my 8 ga. hammergun is lettered to Wagner's store. I just bought a 10 ga gh on a 6 frame with 34" barrels. I would guess that it may have been a Chesapeake Bay gun, but here are no records available. I bought it out of Tennessee. Jeff |

What I want to know is, in the picture which one is the Grandma and which one is the Sister, both have a look that has no way of being described easily.
Sunday afternoon and bored, PTG Rog |

Rog; I am holding Grandma's Gun on the left and our friend is holding the Sister Gun on the right. In the background are the beautiful Allegheny mountains and the routine, mundane and boring rest stop parking lot area - a great place to meet for Show & Tell!
