Is anyone here the new owner of the AHE that finished up on Gun Broker?

Wow! Not me

Strong price considering the issues

[Steiner]

No, but I’d like to own an A grade.

I sent some questions on the gun the first day it posted but never received a reply from the seller ????? I don't know why when people list something 4 sale they don't respond to questions ! Geez ,all I wanted to know was the serial # !

I had the same issue with the seller, no response to my questions. I'm out if the seller is unresponsive. I think the serial number is 117435.

I'll probably be getting a request for a letter soon!

I especially liked the engraving on the bottom of the receiver. The inscription is intriguing. I agree, it was a lot for a gun with serious issues, but.....
I too inquired re: the SN and stock dimensions. Crickets. For the most part, the sellers other listings tells me he doesn't ordinarily deal in this level of gun.

In searching for info on CA Winship, I found he was a wealthy land developer.
He must have liked Parkers, as he had a CHE, inscribed similarly, on the top rib.

Goes along with my theory of why certain people wear dark sunglasses indoors at gun shows, flea markets or general auctions. Over the years I devolved my own theory about them:

1) They are incredibly hung over and don't want anyone to see their eyes
2) They know there will be people at the event that they don't want to see (e.g., owe them money or sold them a bad gun or other item)
3) They have outstanding warrants and know law enforcement will be there.

The best thing about having been in the business for 56 years is that they know that we know that they know who they are.

I love the trigger plate.
