Mr. Carpenter, many years ago, I had a delightful afternoon visit with Mrs. Carpenter, who I assume maybe was your mother, maybe your grandmother. The year escapes me, but it was at the time when "Hidden Dream" was on the market. I have a file of correspondence with her, that I can't put my hands on right now, but I am still looking. In that file was also a realtor's color folder describing and pricing "Hidden Dream". She and I could not arrive at a price for the gun, and I assume she was never able to get her price. That's the gun business. On the way out the drive, I left an expensive bottle of Chardonnay in the mailbox as an enticement for her to keep in touch. I will let you know when I find the correspondence. Bill Murphy in Maryland.

Thats a nice gun with family history. As long as there is family IMHO it should remain with family.
