Wayne,

Please don't take offense to what Mark Conrad said. He wasn't directing his comments to you or William Wise. What he said is something that every long time trapshooter has done. Search for that extra target. They will go to any length to get that 1 out of 1000 extra target that may win for them and that includes modifying $10k+ shotgun with every gadget known to man. Ask me how I know

For most of us (William Wise is an exception) it's a fruitless pursuit. The old adage is true. It's the Indian, not the arrow! My apologies to any Indians out there!

Default Just For The Record

For anyone still interested, I finally have the official details on the BHE - from a PGCA Research Letter.

BHE hammerless
12-gauge
Optional single trigger
Trap forend
Ventilated rib
Acme steel
32-inch barrels
2 5/8" chambers
Capped pistol grip
Length of pull - 14 1/2"
Drop at comb - 1 5/8"
Drop at heel - 2 1/4"
Weight - 7 pounds, 15 ounces
Completed - January, 1927
Pricing - $313, plus $24 (trap forend), $39 (ventilated rib)

I hope that corrects all of the discussions to-date.

And just one more question: The PGCA web page discusses "Repair Codes", and I was wondering if there is somewhere I should look to see if I have any of those.

Thanks again for all of your help, advice, and suggestions. It's been a great learning experience.

Wayne
