I still like Gene Hill's method best...
He leaves the house with a (empty) battered old gun case telling his wife he's going to take it to a good buddy who knows more about these relics and find out if it's worth anything. He returns with the new gun in the case and says his buddy told him it's worthless and he ought to scrap it someday. .

Reggie I don't have a really up to date report on this one. I do know that it is actively being worked on and that we were hoping to catch a break in a couple of areas which we did that will save a fair amount of work. I honestly have no idea as to the time frame for completion. Wood has been acquired as well as a case which will require fitting. I'm just trying to be patient and stay out of the way. After a few of these projects I think I am getting a little better at the waiting game, I think??

I wondered what happened to this gun, I bid on it at the auction a few years back when it came up for sale. I’m glad it found a good home.
