Bill, I did not buy the two barrel BH but was very tempted. Timing wasn't quite right for me. All the more reason I just couldn't let this one get away. The Kimble/Voorhees connection was strong. During my Kimble research I had contact with the Voorhees family and was aware of the existence of these guns. Unfortunately, my contact is no longer available so it's going to take a little more digging to really research this gun. I do know that about 4 months after D. W. Voorhees (Sr. or Jr.?) received the gun, D. W. Jr. won the Chicago Board of Trade medal at the Illinois State shoot, which was held in Peoria. D. W. Sr. was presiding president of the State Association during the tournament.
