Scott I have a GHE 16 on a #1 frame with two sets of vent rib bbls also. The gun letters as a skeet/trap set with BTF for both sets of bbls, straight stock and SST.

Nice Gun! I would like to think mine was ordered for Skeet and Trap but there is no letter available. The serial number puts it around 1928. If you read the Skeet rule book from 1929 the ideal gun for a man to use at Skeet is his ideal field piece.

Got any pictures of your 16?

Scott, my rusty PHE Trap is a two barrel vent rib set with 26" bird barrels. The bird barrels were built with splinter forend. It is not one of my reunited barrel sets. However, I did buy it at a gun show, Allentown, PA. It was owned by (son of?) ballplayer Eddie Plank. It was his pigeon gun when he managed the Bucks County Shooting Association pigeon club at Chalfont, PA. It is now my crossover all purpose gun.

I would like to see that! Do you think the gun was ordered with both barrels or was it sent back for the field barrels?

Scott, the bird barrels are Vulcan Steel and were apparently built later. They are factory numbered and vent rib. No order book entries that late. #216218. The stock book entry is 30", single trigger, Trap type forend, with patterning information. The gun now has a Miller trigger, since it lived its life in PA.
