Most I have seen have been DH or DHE straight grips with splinter forearms.

There was one DH for sale at last years Spring Southern. If memory serves me she was without a safety and double triggers.

All of mine remaining ones and ones in the past were different configs:
Most were .740 bores with 2 7/8 chambers. Weights were any where from 7 3/4 pounds to 9 pounds 5 ounces. All of my 12s were or are on #2 frames.

Go thru the serialization book. They come in runs. Something like 163 in DH grade and smaller numbers in other grades according to TPS.

Dave, thanks for the picture of the "Gold Hearts" gun. Like the Saxbe VHE, the trigger on the "Gold Hearts" gun has miraculously started to work reliably without being touched by a screwdriver.

Wouldn't mind getting my hands on one of the 34 inchers or even a 32 incher before the Virginia State Trap Shoot 4th of July weekend for the side by side event .

Shoot in it last year with my old VH #2 frame 30" gun . But I'd kinda like to get a wee bit longer barrel for this coming year .

Craig, I know at least a couple of vintage gun shooters who shoot the VA State Shoot. Not that I would shoot ATA, but maybe you and these other guys could get together. OK, so I would shoot ATA if I had someone to shoot with. Is there a participant list for last year's Vintage Gun event?

That was a non registered ATA event . Lets see Danny Patton shot (he's the stock guy that a few on here use) , Gent Mitchell shot and myself . Other then a young fellow I drug along those were the only folks I knew .

Last year it was a 50 bird event . I think the guy who's the prez of the VTA wants to try and do a 100 bird race this year .

I would shoot it given enough notice to shoot some trap first.

You realize we can't shoot a 10 gauge ?

If that were the case I would use my old W&C Scott

Hey you still up for the Flying Rabbit in late February or March ?

You're more then welcome to join me at Piedmont to shoot regular trap , wobble trap or jap trap !
