Captain, "fair weather" is a bit of an understatement. I'm sure, as you awoke, the Montgomery County sun was blinding. The ten o'clock sun has expanded the mercury to a reading of 80 degrees F. By the way, Mr. Bickel seems to favor a somewhat odd Parker for his clay bird shooting. It is a very nice top lever hammer gun, but equipped with the new black barrels that have just recently been offered on the hammerless gun. I think he may have constructed the combination himself although the gun shows every sign of factory work. I certainly wouldn't think that Parker Brothers would install the inferior and potentially unsafe black barrels on one of their hallmark hammer guns. It is hoped that Mr. Bickel has not discarded the Damascus barrels that originally adorned the gun. What will these local gunsmiths think of next.
