A few months later I met with Chuck Brunner to purchase a gun from Chuck and took the CHE 20 with me for show and tell and he told me he had contacted the same dealer about the C a few minutes after I did but they were good to their word and I ended up with it ,not sure just how many years ago that was but I would say were pushing 12 to 15 years I have owned it , I love carrying it but I have to admit I am quite careful with it in the field and never carry it for Grouse just Field hunting Pheasant !

Well, when it becomes mine Russ, it will definitely see the grouse woods... on fair weather days only.
I remember just after you first got it and wondered about its originality and you brought it to the Spring Southern, if memory serves correctly, and the experts couldn't find a single reason not to believe it is completely original. I fell in love but I didn't get to hold it for very long - a LOT of guys wanted to examine it.
