A case of shells shipped to Marse Henry in 1948. How, do those equate to being Nash's shells? Nash was gone from the DC area by then and back shooting along Ole Miss.

I thought you guys might enjoy these photographs, seems like they haven't yet been posted. Didn't realize that I had any of the cases left, but found this one when cleaning up for some fix-up construction. I have also included a few shots of the actual shells that came from these cases. I hope I have just enough left to last me for my remaining turkey hunting days. They are being digested in one of Buckingham's big Beckers and do indeed do a good job on turkeys. A 19 1/2 pounder is the best to date. Too bad, I have shot up, given away, or sold most of what I had over the years. I think the case that sold recently was from the stash that I had the privilege to have purchased from Bart Cox. Yes, John Olin did send Nash any and all shells that he needed, gratis, many through Mr. Highsmith. Enjoy

Tom, did you visit the Bartholomew farm when you bought the guns or did Bart Cox ship them to you? When Bart sent me the sale list, I should have paid him a visit instead of crying over spilt milk. Bill Murphy

I am curiouse about a good many things and Nash's Burt Becker guns have always been one of them . Although I've not kept up with it the last 15-20 years .

Anyway I assume the #2 Becker Magnum and Nash's Becker 12 gauge quail gun are still known to exist .

I am curiouse has by chance BoWhoop been uncovered ?

I seem to remmember reading something semi recently that gave me the idea that someone was claiming to have found /uncovered it ?
