Really neat gun that'll show up on the podium hopefully sometime in 2022. Just sayin'.

Mike, was that ser. # 17448 ? the one that Austin Hogan found in upstate New York about 15 years ago? Austin described it as a "perfect rabbit gun", with such a severe drop that it will never shoot high. He published an article in Parker Pages featuring it but I can't seem to find it in the Digital Archive.
