Thanks Mills. I think Brother Drew covered that both in his Damascus Knowledge web page as well as contributions to DGJ. I could be wrong about DGJ though. I'll have to check back in my DGJ Readers to see.
I'd love to go to that property with my metal detector and look for that old rusty Expert trap machine. Now that would be a fine display piece for my gun room.
There's a lot to know about the history of Skeet and I think I've only scratched the surface as far as that history goes here in Andover but I've always got my eyes and ears open.
