Widgeon Club's guns
I know these guns get both discussed and shown here now and then, so i thought someone might be interested
there is a small article in the new issue of Wildfowl about the California clubs of the early 1900- its printed over a photo of two open cars festooned with geese and loaded with hunters displaying their double guns and pumps.
the article mentions the Widgeon club's special order of 32 inch 20ga Parkers on 1 frames, adding that one was ordered with an extra set of barrel in 28ga.
