There was a supposedly factory original 8 gauge 32” lifter at Sanford , Houseman’s and Koneski’s . I’d like to have had it but it was a couple grand more than I thought it was worth .

I remember Pugs had a 8 gauge lifter with factory 32" barrels about 2 years ago listed for $4900 they couldnt sell it at that price but I think it sold at auction for 6k which I thought was odd.

Got the gang mold for 000000 buck today . It’s actual 5 thousandths smaller in diameter than the two single cavity molds I’ve been using but being as this deal has more then enough cavities to fill a shotgun shell with each pour I can live with it !
