Among the treasures at this auction were these three pieces from the early 1900s. I'm always fascinated when I see original pieces like this, over 100 years old, still intact.

I got a Remington Model 32 12 gauge 28” skeet gun that has what appears to be factory vent rib . This one might get a set of fitted 20 gauge tubes but I doubt I go whole hog for 28’s and 410’s .

I thought I had but I went back and looked at my Invaluable history and I’d not bought from them before . Think I’d just bid on a few of their items in the past .

They had two Stevens 44 1/2 rifles that were made during the time when H.M. Pope was involved with Stevens and as such the barrels were stamped “Stevens-Pope” . These sold Saturday and as I waited to bid sitting on the couch I dozed off and missed them . Just as well I would’ve needed to scratch up some 32-40 brass for either one . One of them had a second barrel in 28-30 Stevens , that would’ve been Intresting as I’ve never messed with the cartridge but have wanted to ever since I became intrested in shall we say schuetzen type stuff .
