Kevin McCormack and I inspected the gun in its finished form at a later Vintagers at Millbrook. Kevin fired the gun, I did not. I was coming off the discovery of my right eye problems and didn't think I could give it a good trial. I'm sure several of us shot the gun that year. The only real observation we made was that the gun had way too many parts, screws, pins, you name it, around the open breech section which should be a clean and uncluttered area of any break open gun. I really didn't understand the concept that was being attempted. I would like to see the latest version to see if it would be more interesting.
