Good Morning Chris, I would be very interested in your copy of Senator Hawes' book if you should decide to part with it. I only have the one Becker, a 26" 20 ga. and the monogramed vc case it spent its life in. Every so often, the single trigger will miss tripping, but I don't have the nerve to move the original untouched screws to clean it, so maybe one time in 50 or so it will be a single shot. It is getting better with use though. There is also a long barreled companion Becker of Senator Hawes' out there somewhere that has surfaced and was in, or maybe is still in, a well known collection??? I only recently got back to semi-serious hunting (translation: about 3 hours in the woods puts me on the DA list) after successful minor back surgery and some new meds. Will Rogers had it right in that 'getting old isn't for sissies', Ahhhh, but Life is Good!
