Mark, I find some of the frustration and mystique is what we don't/can't know vs what we do know. I remember you telling me my VH with the annotation "Trap Configuration" was unusual. I don't know what was meant by Trap Configuration but believe it has to be related to the abnormally large comb (pic of it next another 1 1/2 frame 30" VH attached). It's stock dimensions, 30" barrels, tight chokes and double ivory beads make well suited for trap shooting but the stock seems unusual to me. I have no provenance to a trap shooter but I have a letter with information that suggests this gun was to be used on the trap field.
