Shot Tee-Kays Gun

[Craig Larter]

I shot my newest Parker today at Rochester Brooks Gun Club, a 1903 DH Pigeon gun ordered by T. H. Tom Keller. I have done a bunch of research on Tee-Kay as he was called----I find that he shot at the Rochester Gun Club in with the likes of Walter Parker and all the rest of the top shooters of the era. He shot with AH Fox, Fred Gilbert and many of other pros of the day during the late 1800's and early 1900's. Over 1600 hits on Keller on the L84 web site., the Peters Cartridge Co. sales rep for the eastern US. After a slow start the karma of Mr. Keller came alive in my hands---I am a very average shooter---just smoked targets 110 years after leaving Meridan. Condition is what we all strive for but provenance is really fun.
