Too many years ago now to remember exactly, I bought a #1 frame 20 ga. DHE straight grip SKBP / SFE with 32" barrels with no safety in very well worn condition from Butterfield's Auction in San Francisco. I was able to preview the gun beforehand live while on a business trip there, and the first thing I did when I got home was to order a PGCA letter.
Most unfortunately for me and subsequent owner(s), the c. SN 153XXX was in one of the 'missing' Order/Stock books. Try as I might to establish the gun as one of the bona fide "California Duck Club Guns", literally years of research turned up nothing. The gun had 3 inch chambers, very tight chokes, and a noticeable bulge just forward of the right chamber. I have "willed" in my mind that none other than one of my most prominent ducking idols, Edwin L. Hedderly, bulged that chamber with one of his hot handloads, while searching for that elusive "utmost possibility" (one of his favorite quotes). I subsequently sold the gun to a most deserving PGCA member of like ilk. Its path through the universe since then is another compelling and unusual story. |

I have come to enjoy 32 inch tubes and currently have 5 four of which are Parkers and a lone CE Fox. two are 12's, two 16's and a 20.
I'm no trap shooter by any stretch of the imagination but yesterday there was a 150 bird shoot divided up equally between trap, skeet and sporting clays. The last time I shot trap I had a score of 8 so the trap segment wasn't very promising. I used a DH two frame live bird gun with .045 of choke in each barrel and shot 44/50. This is a straight grip, SPF gun and those long tubes moved right along no stopping the swing.
