I love Gough's dogs-very distinctive. The ones on the AHE 16ga I posted are very similar. Was that gun once Larry Fry's then to TN to you?

Steve Cambria, (toolman) is one sick puppy. I think it's about time the Fox and Parker guys schedule some match shoots between individual shooters, like the old days.

David -

I do not know the answer to that although I do not believe so. This gun sat at Orvis for at least 8-10 years. I have found posts on this site about it (type in serial number) from Austin Hogan and others. They had priced it for the economy at that time (20 -25K). It gradually worked itself down to an affordable level. I have exchanged numerous emails with the widow of the owner. She is a wonderful person and I expect I would have enjoyed shaking hands with her late husband. They are from the northeast - not Tennessee.

Here is a Gough gun that just sold at Amoskeag last Saturday. It's a Columbian Exposition gun, an AH that is now an AHE. Gough signed all 3 major panels. When it came back from the World's Fair in 1893, it was sold to a fellow in Connecticut.
