I don't need to see the serial number to know what I'm looking at.

Best Always,

I'm with Dean on this. I've never seen a gun as early as that with that style setter...and have seen plenty in the 1920s with the strongly contoured, simplistic drawing like the one in that third photo. Check the serial number again. Perhaps you have confused it with another of your guns(?). I certainly can be wrong, and I'm an expert in absolutely nothing.

The two of you are bent on convincing me I should be in a home.
I have 6 grade 3 guns and I could have grabbed one gun, then when I went to check when it was made, grabbed another. I will check when I get home.

You are a good and gracious man to indulge us, Edgar.

OK, I'm home (actually got home 10 minutes ago, but wanted to give Dean enough time to get out all his party decorations and put on a clean shirt for the photographers)

Despite the demanding of his Coronation and Jeweled Sceptor prematurely, I Concede Dean's astounding knowledge of Fred Anschutz Dogs

Gary, my error was just as you described, in grabbing the gun I thought I photographed last night, but one next to it.

OK Dean, Let the festivities begin.

Thanks for checking, Edgar. I’ll sleep better tonight
