I would like to think the gun in Drews post was Sousa's Purdey, but the long receiver makes it look more like his A-2 Smith. Garry, the Double Gun Journal, Summer 2013, had my and Tom Breeden's article about Sousa's Lindner Daly Sextuple, with many pictures. Our article about his Remington 10F is in a Remington Society Journal around the same time, also with many pictures.

Thanks, Bill. I will hunt up the DGJ article today!

The Sousa Remington Model 10F was displayed and written about in the first quarter issue, 2015, of the Remington Society Journal. Great pictures by Dean Breeden, co-author Tom Breeden's son.
