Finally got to look at the Catalog last night. Super job on the catalog very much like their decoy catalogs.
Maybe it is my ignorance but are the estimated values seem low to me?

Great job with the catalog, congrats! Went through it page-by-page-by-page, couldn’t find a single thing I wouldn’t like to own!

Well the catalog was at the PO monday . When I checked my box last night on the way home there was a notice in the box so I was able to retrieve it today !

As much as I hate to agree with Murphy seems to me Charlie Hunter must have Hunterized a lot of stuff

I think what Craig is saying is that Mr. Hunter choke tubed many of his guns, some of which are not visible on casual inspection. I purchased one gun for thousands of dollars and found when paying for it that invisible choke tubes had been installed. No mention was made of this and I drove hundreds of miles to find this out. Also many of his guns have had serious rust damage. I'm sure the Guyette staff will make every effort to identify these problems, if they exist. Craig is probably suggesting examining your purchases in person. Craig and I and other friends attended an earlier auction of Mr. Hunter's property and purchased guns. Lucky for us, Josh is running this auction, and we should not have the problems we had at the previous one. If Craig and I are out of line, Josh will let us know and we will delete these posts.

I make no mention of choke tubes . This was more a trigger thing .

My copy arrived last week and I spent well over an hour going through it as a first pass. Beautiful catalog. Great collection for the first auction and reasonable estimates should drive a lot of interest! Have my eye on a couple of things. Wife’s comment was “Oh no. Not another”. We’ll see. Thanks, Josh.
