I bought a nice 10 Gauge ,Primed at the Pittsburgh Gun Collectors Show a couple of years ago with very nice head stamping and paid
$30.00 for it ,never regretted buying it but I would have rather gone $20.00 ,Good Buy ! I edited this as I went and got the Casing and it is Head Stamped ,just like Craig's but it says West Meriden Ct. ,What's up with that does any one know ?

West Meriden is a not un-common head stamp but I don't know why or where that is.
Dave Suponski lives west of Meriden so maybe he knows!! He knows stuff like that.
