I have an opportunity on a double ended A&F case wherein the cap on one end allows access to the barrels and butt and the other end opens with compartments for a cleaning rod, oil bottle and snap caps. It will fit a 26 or 28" gun, and in VG condition. From the telephone description, its the No. 4 case in Austin's catalog.
I'm a case guy, love well made cases, and this is a new one on me. I have a Red Head Elliot case, somewhat similar and an A&F LOM case not shown in the catalog and is a standard LOM.
Comments? Rarity ?
Austin, I still have a leather bound edition of the account of Roy Chapman Andrews paleontological expedition to Mongolia. Fascinating. My mother was scheduled to depart for China to teach English when the Japanese invaded. She ended up at the War Dept in Washington working for the Secretary of the Navy, probably a safer job.
